Stephen Marley

Born: June 2, 1950

Many years ago I was planning on being a full time musician, but mid- college, I took a different path and went into advertising and jazz fell by the wayside. After 35 years in the "ad biz" I'm very excited about playing again... it's been a real honor to have been able to jam and gig with some of the areas best players. I'm learning a great deal, shedding everyday and gradually getting my chops back. I'm also working on improving my home recording studio and having too much fun. Starting in January 2012, I've been hosting and leading the house trio at the Hedley Club Jazz Jam in the lounge at the Hotel De Anza in San Jose CA on the 1st and 3rd Wednesday, each month

Gene Lewin

Tuur Moens

Born: April 17, 1985

EARLY INFLUENCES

Born in 1985 in Duffel, Belgium, music has been a pervasive presence in Tuur’s upbringing, during which his father, passionate for the blues, played the guitar and drums while his mother was immersed in her love for world music. She would take Tuur as a child to an annual world music festival, Sfinks, where Tuur could admire big names like Ali Farka Touré, Salif Keita, Youssou N’Dour, Mori Kanté, Baba Maal, Goran Bregovic, Buena Vista Social Club, Rubén Gonzáles… Tuur reminisces about laying on the couch as a child, listening to Miles Davis, Bobby Mc Ferrin, Salif Keita, Paul Simon, Gilberto Gil, Tower of Power, Wayne Shorter, and such varied influences. After hitting improvised paper boxes, mother's pans and "Fisher Price" drum sets at the age of 3, and later taking over daddy’s drum set on the attic, Tuur’s formal musical journey began at age 8, when his parents subscribed him for classical percussion at the music academy of Mechelen (BE).
