Barrie Hart
Barrie is a Bay Area native, growing up in Marin County. She began singing and playing guitar at a young age, and in her twenties found a connection with contemporary Christian music. Influenced by Bonnie Raitt, Melissa Etheridge and Susan Tedeschi, she began playing her style of contemporary Christian music in and out of churches, releasing her CD “Whom Shall I Send” in 2014. In recent years she has been a member of several local bands, including Hart & Soul and The Interpretations. Whether singing on a Sunday or late at night in a club, she always brings her passion and soulful sound, guaranteed to draw you in.
Brad Katuna
Brad grew up in the Bay Area listening to classic rock and R & B while hooping with his buddies. For the last two decades he has been thumping the bass in local bands including The Interpretations, Hart and Soul, Skyline Blues Band and The Dunes. Since he doesn’t golf, laying down a thick groove and getting folks on
the dance floor is his absolute
favorite pastime.
