BOONE STAPLES
LEAD GUITAR
Boone is from North Richland Hills, Texas. He grew up listening to his dad’s country music cassette tapes. Although he enjoys many styles of music, he admits there is nothing like tapping your boots to a sound of a twangin’ Telecaster! Boone is the father of three sweet and energetic children, and the husband of one good-hearted woman. Boone is a fightin’ Texas Aggie electrical engineer and a registered Professional Engineer in the great state of Texas. Interests aside from pickin’ include fishing, woodworking, mathematics and tinkering in the garage!
BOB HALLGREEN
BASS
Bob Hallgren, bassist and groove master, joins Justin Mason with over 30 years of music history under his belt. His genre repertoire includes pop, rock, blues, funk, worship and country. As if that weren’t enough, Bob is also a beloved husband, father of three, and five time grandpappy! While Bob’s “right brain” enables him to rock with the best of ‘em, his “left brain” moved him through multiple radiopharmaceutical companies and eventually landed him here in the DFW area as Cyclotron Facility Manager for UT Southwestern. When not managing cyclotron operations or rocking the stages, Bob enjoys traveling, cooking and spending quality time with family and friends. Fresh in from Chicago, Illinois, Bob is laying down his roots in Irving, TX and plans to stay a while!

VIC ANDREWS
FIDDLE/HARMONICA
Vic began studying music at age 3 in a family of musicians. He grew up with a bow in his hands, and by the age of 17 had built a fruitful young career both at home and internationally as a budding solo performer.
As a first-generation American raised in rural Illinois, Vic elected to forego further music education & performance at age 18 in order to pursue a nomination to the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis MD. He graduated from USNA having earned a commission as an Officer in the United States Marine Corps. Serving proudly until 2016, and having carried a fiddle at every duty station from North Carolina to Bahrain, Vic came home to the U.S. to reside in Texas where he is thrilled to return to his first craft and contribute to the thriving music community in Texas.
