Phase 3 The Band

    In 2006 we, as new neighbors, discovered that each played a different instrument.  We started jamming in Mike's (the drummer) basement and before we knew it, we had 30 songs.  A New Year's party launched us into being a real band.  From there we played a Mardi Gras party, a local tavern, and the rest is history.  As we are all part of the third phase of our neighborhood's building schedule, we were deemed "Phase 3" by one of our neighbors. Rick, a Lambertville local, offered to join us on our gigs to play congas.

Mike is a native New Jerseyan and is probably the member of our band who is most responsible for the forming of Phase 3. He is the central cog from which we all met one another and started jamming. Initially, our jam sessions were just a way to sooth our inner teenager but Mike started booking gigs so we figured - what the hell, sounds like fun! When Mike was in the 5th grade, after 3 years of guitar lessons, he was kicked out of his Church guitar group because the other group members thought he was too young.  So Mike decided to focus on sports until he was old enough to fit in (decades later). But instead of guitar, Mike decided to make a louder noise on the drums.

Jim is From Hightstown, NJ and is perhaps the most musically versatile member of the band. His guitar is what gives us our sound. (So you can thank him or blame him. We thank him) Jim has been playing guitar for a long, long time; even longer in dog years. One reason we play so many songs is because Jim knows so many songs....The rest of us don't, but he does.

Howard hails from England and yes, he is quite jolly. But, he is really a classically trained pianist slumming as a rock n roller. As Americans we initially were cautious of Howard thinking he could be a Revolutionary War spy but we realized the timing was a bit off. Howard is also a family man/rocker.

Kerrin is as awesome as they come. She has enjoyed singing in bands many years and we're happy that she enjoys doing gigs with us! When you hear her sing we're sure you'll be happy too!
