Singing in front of people began in church and school choirs.

Scott Lorange - Vocals - Scott expressed an interest in music at a very young age, singing along with his Mom's John Denver and Bee Gees albums. Piano lessons started at the age of eight, quickly followed by learning to play songs by ear.

Scott spent most of the 80's playing keyboards and/or singing in a number of local cover bands in Western MA. After a tour of duty in the US Army, Scott moved to Arizona and then Colorado where he became a fan of country music and began to work with a number of talented musicians out west before moving back to MA in 1999. His last band was yet another country band, this time with a some great New England country players doing the more modern pop country currently on the radio.

Scott is a huge fan of all kinds of 80's music as well as the great vocalists of all decades of rock: Freddie Mercury, Geoff Tate, Brad Delp, Steve Perry, Chris Cornell...the list goes on and on. Scott brings an energetic stage presence to his performances and is as likely to be seen running through the crowd at a show as he is to be on stage.
