Chris Brooks - Lead Vocals

Chris began singing at an early age where many musicians get their start: the church. He credits his parents as his first early vocal coaches. He began performing professionally at the age of 15 with a group called the Premiers who were featured in a number of commercials. With a musical background deeply rooted in rock and country music, Chris has matured musically over the years with groups such as Candor and Mezzanine. As a performer, Chris mixes an edgy baritone voice with warm, deep, bass vocals setting him apart from most other country singers.

Chris's love for country music began when he received his first country record in 1978 ...yes, that means vinyl. That album was Kenny Rogers's "The Gambler". A love affair with country music began there and expanded as Chris listened to the country rock sounds of The Eagles and more as he accompanied his father on trips to break horses.

A spin through Chris's IPod today will unveil his preference for Texas Country, Americana and singer-songwriters that he was exposed to while attending Texas Christian University. Chris would tell you his biggest musical influences are: Roger Clyne, Will Hoge, Robert Earl Keen, Randy Travis, Chris Knight and Cody Canada.

Aaron Seevers - Drums, Vocals

Born and raised in Missouri this Minnesota transplant began hittin’ the skins at an early age and hasn’t missed a beat since. From middle school band class to high school marching and orchestral performance, Aaron’s early studies helped to develop his musical foundation. This early grooming has proven beneficial given the wide variety of opportunities that have come his way.

Having worked the club scene in the Kansas City, MO area for years Aaron found himself wanting to explore new territories both geographically and musically which led him to Minneapolis, MN to complete his degree in Musical Performance. While attending North Central University he toured extensively with One Accord and Worship Live. When this bus stopped rolling he then transferred to then Music Tech College now McNally Smith College of Music to complete his degree. Upon graduation he hopped a plane with Virgin / Star Trak artists N.E.R.D / Spymob and headed to Tokyo, Japan which started a year long tenure as drum technician for the group. After a year touring the U.S., England, Ireland, Scotland, and Jamaica, Aaron was offered the drum chair for Universal South artist Rockie Lynne.

For the next 2 years Aaron toured the upper Midwest region and the Nashville club scene with Rockie country rockin’ all the way. After some label and management changes he found himself drumming for Soup Music artist Rae Singer and Minneapolis country band JUG.

Brett LaCasse- Lead Guitar

Brett started playing in Minneapolis about 6 years ago and most recently performed with Bakatcha, the Tim Sigler Band and Luckytown. Brett has played pretty much every venue in the Twin Cities, and has shared the stage with many local and national acts.

Brett describes himself as a chickin’ pickin’, white boy blues guitarist, a venerable jack of all trades, a master of none.

Brett also plays guitar at Eaglebrook Church two weekends a month. Brett's playing style would be best described as if Jimi Hendrix and Jerry Reed had a baby and it grew up and married Brad Paisley who then had a baby that was abducted by Prince and Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Mike Haselman – Pedal Steel, Fiddle, Guitar

Mike started playing guitar in the dark ages of the early '60s. He played in many rock bands in the ‘70s, including the semi-legendary trio “Spike.” Mike was playing in the house band at the Clover Club on University in St. Paul when his future friend and mentor of 30+ years, Sonny Miller, sat in on pedal steel. After picking his jaw up from the floor, Mike got a pedal steel the next week and learned to play by ear and from Sonny. Mike played in several country rock bands in the ‘80s, including “The Deputy Dawg Band.”

Mike was inducted along with the rest of the Dawg Band into the Iowa Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in 2009. During this time he picked up the fiddle and taught himself that instrument. He was a member of several bands in the ‘90s and ‘00s including The Nielsen White Band, Jug, Janie Miller and Tim Sigler, where he met and performed with TMD's guitar player, Brett LaCasse. Mike also filled in so many times with High Noon that he was awarded an induction along with them into the Mid-America Music Hall Of Fame in 2008. Mike’s eclectic tastes and versatility have allowed him to play with punk rock, soul jazz, blues and country bands throughout his long musical career.
