Ken Seeley

Born: February 23, 1965

Ken is currently active in the Ottawa-Hull Canada region as a free-lance electric bass player and teacher. He has been a professional musician for well over thirty years, and a music educator for over 15 years. Ken has developed a deep-pocketed groove in his bass playing that took shape within a formal education in jazz, funk, rock, aftro-cuban, brazilian, and other odd-meter styles, but probably started when he first picked up the bass at the age of 13. Ken has many years of “real world” performance and music business experience, has directed numerous music programs, and produced many projects and musical groups

a semi-pro musician, composer and home-recordist of no fixed genre. "srm" is for my solo material. I've played punk, prog, jazz, psychedelia, country, electronic and have dents in my psyche to prove it. I have gone from R&R wannabe to semi-retired, semi-pro 'recording artist' and am enjoying creating without the constraints of trying to be "commercial".

Jaime David Vazquez

Jaime David Vazquez was born in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico and started with classical guitar and music theory lessons at age 16. He entered the Inter-American University to study music education and bought a bass and started gigging with lots of bands, artists and performing in studio sessions. With such a busy schedule, Jaime had to put his studies on hold for a while; when the time was right, he returned to the university but he changed his main instrument from classical guitar to double bass and electric bass. Jaime loves the low frequencies in music. He believes that the bass is still a young instrument with lots of possibilities that have not been explored enough
