Who are these bearded gentlemen and
what makes them special?
Joe Martin
vocals, rhythm - and lead guitar
Growing up in New Jersey
before joining the Navy and traveling the world, this
Yankee-turned-Southerner considers the musical vibrations of Bob Marley,
soulful sounds of Muddy Waters, explorations of Miles Davis, and the
groovin' of the Grateful Dead as inspirations for wailin' & moanin'. Also
serves as the band's primary songwriter since helping to found the band in
late 2006 from the remnants of the local acoustic band "Drive South".

Lonny Finnley
rhythm guitar, mandolin & vocals
Formerly of South Alabama and the Florida Panhandle, the mandolin maestro
of the Brewers formerly toured with the Celtic-fused sounds of Henri's
Notions. Now the band director at King College, Lonny lends his soaring
vocals and mastery of rhythm to the Brewer's lineup.

Jeff Dean
drums, percussion and vocals
A native of the
Tri-Cities (hailing from Telford), he's played with bands as diverse as
Serpentine Brown, RC and the Moonpies, and Johnny Echo & The Reverbs
before joining the Brewers in 2006. Counts as his musical influences the
likes of John Bonham and Ringo Starr as well as non-percussionists such as
Louis Armstrong and the Allman Brothers.

Marion Dunn
bass and vocals
From Willie Dixon and
the roots of Delta Blues, to the bluegrass roots of the Appalachians, one
of Memphis' most complete and accomplished bassists lays down the bottom
end for the Brew-Crew. Growing up in Memphis and influenced by the likes
of Duck Dunn, John Cowan, and Paul McCartney, he relocated to the
Tri-Cities in the 90's and joined the Brewers in Dec. 2006.
