The core group is Donnie Perkins on fiddle, Phyllis (Perkins) Ezero, (Don's sister), playing piano and fiddle, her husband Joe playing guitar and their son, Daniel, playing electric bass. Occasionally, they will feature the Ezero's daughter, Leslie, performing vocals. I've been a guest member of the band a few times.
