They have pulled ppeople out of the street and into the venue saying, "you sound just like The Indigo Girls"! 

Keith Christian

Keith Christian is the mentor and long time friend of Jena C. Douglas. He formerly worked at Jensen Guitar and Music in Santa Barbara, where Jena used to take her lunch breaks. They were in several bands together during the 1980s. Keith has played mostly bass for the bands that Jena was in prior to this one but during a chance meet up at Starbucks after many, many years, Keith told her of his interest in playing Lap Steel. About a week or two later, Jena ran into Keith again… same spot and she ask if he’d like to play Lap Steel for The Stone Phoneys he jumped at the chance. Keith probably has the best ear in the band. His musical prowess and creative genius is amazing. 

Tom Banigan

 Unlike many bassists who switched over from guitar, Tom Banigan fell in love with the first bass he touched at age 15. He practiced his lessons and played  R&R, jazz and fusion at LA clubs until attending UCSB. After graduation, he walked the corporate career path. In 1988-89, Tom joined the Heebie Geebies, performing original alternative rock at local venues.   Twenty plus years of “musical hibernation” ended when Tom and three coworkers formed Led Zecutive, a hard-rocking cover band in 2011. His retirement is focused on practicing, performing and pursuing all things musical.
