Jayne Anastacio vocals, keyboards  |
Jayne is a beautiful captivating singer from
the gorgeous West Coast of British Columbia. Musically she grew up listening to her mom and dad’s music: Connie
Francis, Patsy Cline, Julie Andrews and Barbara Streisand just to
name a few. In her own era, Donna Summer, Whitney Houston, Madonna,
Gloria Estefan, Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner got the fire in her belly
stoked. “The li’l one with the big voice” has extensive experience
performing with many different prolific groups of artists, playing
countless venues. She expresses herself authentically with a refined
balance between bursts of bitter-sweet cries behind her sultry smoky
voice and whispery tenderness. Adding jazz to her dynamic
repertoire has taken Jayne’s voice to another level of mix in her
tones. Stewart Derdeyn a music reviewer for
the Province News Group describes Jayne’s voice as “soulful”, and
describes her album as “… a work of a professional.” As a recording artist, Jayne has released two CDs of original works (click here to view/order)and has been recently busy working on her next CD so keep checking our site for updates. Photo Credit: Trevan Wong |

Francis van Roode guitars, vocals, digital synths  |
To become a studio musician in Los Angeles may have been what
Francis
wanted to do at age 16, but that young man saw the future of
technology in music and pursued a successful career path in
advancing computer technology. He never let go of that "guitar jones" and always found
ways to keep his hands playing.
Francis now balances the aspects of his 25 year computer technology career and his love of music by playing live, honing his digital recording studio capabilities and enabling others around him to excel in what they love to do. Francis offers guitar instruction for children who are serious about learning properly. The world is full of guitar teachers who teach songs and "play by number". Francis is focussed on teaching music first and finger mechanics second. Even though digitization plays a heavy role in today's world, Francis believes in what is old may still have been best. As a result, he designs, builds, & sells both vintage and modern vacuum tube based guitar and bass amplifiers to the discerning musician world. Tuning every component by ear makes these unique amplifiers a rare and sought after find. Photo Credit: Nadine Inkster Photography |
