Danielle Pease, Vocals & Keyboards
Danielle, the lead singer just turned 15 and is a freshman in High school. Her unique sultry voice and confident energy keeps fans begging for more. She comes from a family with a long list of accomplished musicians. Danielle's vocal performances allow you to feel her emotions. She also plays piano and performs in national cheering competitions!
Kristen Veayo, Guitar & Vocals
Kristen is the guitarist and a vocalist. She is 14 and is in 8th grade. Art will always be a big part of her life, whether it's drawing, painting, or making music. She has a special connection with animals and seems to naturally attract them. Kristen is a great songwriter with a unique ability to write songs, composing the music with the lyrics all at once!
Katherine Veayo, Drummer & Vocals
Katherine, aka 'KAT', is 14 and is Kristen's identical twin! She is the drummer and can do back-up vocals simultaneously. She is a natural performer with an “old-school ear” for music. Katherine is known as "the time keeper,” having 3 seasons of percussion with an entire orchestra at New England Music Camp. She is also a talented visual artist. Kat has played piano & drums for 6 years!
Declan Chu-Guitar
Declan, a 14 year-old freshman, is an accomplished guitarist. He has a way of pulling the crowd in with his awesome solos. Declan's witty sense of humor makes him a lot of fun. He plays the French horn and is very good at tennis and soccer. When you see him live, you can tell he spends many hours practicing his craft. Declan will be able to choose a bright future in academics or in music, but probably both!
Aaron St. Pierre-Bass
Aaron, bass player and also a 14 year-old freshman, has a super stage presence and his multiple talents include trumpet, piano, and vocals. He is a great skier and soccer player. Aaron is always smiling and moving when he plays music. It's like he is connected to the drum kit when he plays bass. Aaron will probably pursue music as a career, unless of course, it pursues him first!
