This project is one which I will always hold true to my heart. Live in Cocoa Beach will always be one of my favorite personal recordings. The pure honesty of Norah's writing can be heard through this acoustic trio. Norah Ricchi: Vocals and rhythm guitar. Dan Mowery: lead and rhythm guitar.

The S.E.A.D. - Jammin on the one! A debauchers party band Print E-mail
2004-2006

Bonded in groove and jam, this band quickly emerged as the must-see musical event in Central Florida. Drawing heavily from collective musical heritage which ranges from early blues, to swing, fusion, reggae, funk, and the philosophy that good music+enlightened musicians=head-bobbing fun. The SEAD was never afraid to fuse original ideas and fresh musical philosophies with the old to produce a sound that is truly unique. Geoff Weeks: Vocals and Keyboards. Dan Mowery: Rhythm and Lead Guitar. Billy Carter: Drums and Percussion. BJ Callahan: Tenor Saxophone. Luke Thatcher: Drums (on "The Chicken")

The Dave Trio plays mostly instrumental/improv funk and jazz with the occasional lyric thrown in. Featuring the Daves of funkUs and Tangus Shat, Dave and Dave and Dave "accidentally" came together at a Full Sail studio session and soon realized that they made a pretty darn good trio... The Dave Trio, in fact. Dave Mann: Vocals, Lead and Rhythm Guitar. Dave Cox: Drums and Percussion
