CASSIDY
RAIN - LEAD VOCALS / RHYTHM GUITAR
Cassidy’s musical journey began before she can remember - she was singing and
memorizing songs when she started talking. At the age of 5, her parents got her
a tape recorder that she used constantly to record songs she heard and sang. By
the time she was 10 years old, she had already started writing her own songs. At
14, she picked up the acoustic guitar and it became her fondest companion; she
took it everywhere with her - to school, to the beach, everywhere. Her guitars
have their share of knicks and bruises from their adventures.
BRYAN
SCHROEDER - LEAD GUITAR / BACKUP VOCALS
Bryan’s journey in music began early as well, attending his Dad’s band’s shows
from a very young age. There are photos of him and his cousin on stage with his
Dad’s band, toy guitars in hand. However, Bryan’s first musical venture was in
drumming, and he played drums for years before learning to play guitar. He began
to really hone in on the guitar when he moved to California and was able to
spend hours playing every day.
MAX ADLER - DRUMS / BACKUP VOCALS
Max rounds out The Outcrops rhythm section with a fluid groove that carries the
band along like the ebbs and flows of a river. Like the great blues, soul and
rock bands of the 60's and 70's, his style has a foundation in Jazz. Max was a
student of the Jazz program at Montclair State University in New Jersey and he
uses his knowledge and skills to add flavors and dynamics, imprinting his style
on the band's sound.
QAASIM MUNOZ - BASS GUITAR
Qaasim, otherwise known as "Q", adds a uniquely funky & jazzy style of playing
to The Outcrops. Besides playing music, Q is also a professional fine artist. |
