Band founder, lead vocalist, and rythym guitar player Dean Tinnin is no stranger to music. With a father having a degree in music education and a mother who has taught piano and choir for nearly fifty years he has been exposed to nearly every form of music in all genres. Dean says he does not have a favorite style of music, he just likes music that "feels good".
Dean has been playing country music since he was fifteen, however in the last few years he began to appreciate Texas songwriters for their courage to shun the "Nashville Machine" and produce their own brand of music, "Texas Country Music". "It takes alot of talent to do it all yourself" he says.
