The People of RedFish
(In no particular order)

So...Click on a Pic, already!

"Cuter than the Rolling Stones, Uglier than the Beatles."

Stu Morse
Lead Vocals, Rhythm Guitar, Percussion, Keys

Nowhere does it say you have to do the logical thing. And nowhere is this more true than for Stu Morse, RedFish’s resident ‘Golden Throat’. The classical studied path of voice and piano was explosively departed from when Stu, in a teenage snit, undertook instead to shred on the electric guitar. Eyes were rolled in parental heads, but no diversion from the incendiary path of Rock and Roll was possible. Result? Philadelphia was never the same. Stu played festivals and suffered swelling shoals of swooning schoolgirls. It was downright scary. So, off to Chicago where Stu co-founded ‘The Usual Suspects’. But, the weather meant too few days to rehearse and play. To Santa Barbara he came with the idea of a new type of band: eclectic rock. And so began the story of RedFish.

Chris Russo
Drums, Percussion

Chris sprang from the head of Zeus fully kitted out with a hundred sticks, a score of skins and a round baker's dozen of brass shields to do battle with the musical Hydra. Must have been the sixties and nothing to be trifled with. Apart from his mastery of the many rhythmic styles and genres, Chris is a part of history for his citizen's arrest of the Police and playfully getting Tom Hanks to lose his temper.

Uses the Force.

Scott Rowe
Piano, Electric Piano, Synth

We would have a nice bio here, but we are having a devil of a time finding out anything about him, for heaven's sake. When asked, Scott simply smiles knowingly and rips off some jaw-dropping complex riff direct from the gods. The speculation is that Scott is either on the lam or in the witness protection program for having spilled the beans on the pianos of the local Hollywood mafia. (See Charlie Chaplin et al.)

Sven Holcomb
Lead Guitar, Vocals

Google search ‘guitar god’ and you used to get Sven’s pic and home address. He begged them to remove his info because women stalked him relentlessly. Aptly nicknamed “Svendrix” due to his playing prowess. Has jammed with Mick Jagger. Not only a master of the fretboard, Sven is a highly sought after sound technician on the pro circuit having recorded Santana and Ravi Shankar. When not ripping hot, steamy solos, Sven teaches yoga to the same rabid females who like to Google search ‘guitar god.’

Ladies, prepare to perspire, deep breaths now...

Gus Velasquez
Bass, Vocals

The master of the steel string thunder stick. His parents took him to Woodstock where during The Who’s performance ‘Little Gusty’ pointed to John Entwhistle’s bass and said, “Mama, me want big boom boom guitar.”  The rest as they say is…unverifiable rumor.   Has played in pro bands on both coasts.  Once opened for Molly Hatchet when during the post-gig party drank 20 Mountain Dews and did something to earn having his picture placed on the wall of the post office. 

Has worn Spandex.
