James Graves - Vocals, Keys and hand

Music is the universal translator. It helps to light up a dark day, and a way for life's energy to express itself while serving a greater purpose. To steal a quote from Socrates, "Many paths; One goal."

Kurt Kalinka - Guitar, Vocals

This is not a job. It is not hobby. It is not joke. It's a way of life! It's music and it is the love of my life, the expresser of all emotions and events. Memphis 4 Now is the best thing I have ever been a part of. I couldn't ask for a better group of guys to share music, achievements, and most importantly friendship. Life is not forever but the music you leave behind can be!

Wes Graves -Guitar,Vocals

Music is what I live for. It makes me feel alive inside and is really rewarding when I see people gettin' down to our music. Music is love to me and in this day and age there is nothing more universally important than love. I also really like the money and our benefits package as well as our free tour bus. Did I mention I like the paid vacations?

Kinney Aumiller

Kinney Aumiller-Bass Guitar

My name is Bryan Maurice Aumiller, or Kinney or Superfly Mcbry. I have been playing the bass guitar for quite some time now and have a musical background. I an aspiring tho be the worlds first man to play the bass guitar and juggle 4 over weight dachshunds simultaneously. It seems far-fetched, but with the right amount of practice and stick-to-itiveness, I believe it can be accomplished. Some of my biggest influences
are not individual musicians, but whole bands. I.E. The grateful dead, String Cheese incident, yes, blues traveler, and Bon Jovi, just to name a few. I believe a band is only as good as the sum of all of its parts.

There should be an equal amount of energy and hard work put in by each member. I think that memphis4now does a terrific job of maintaining this equilibrium. On a personal note, let it be stated that I am extremely attracted to tall brunettes, enjoy holding hands, long walks on the beach and love being held. Now I feel the need to end with a quote.

"There comes a time in every man's life when he must bite the bullet. The going gets tough and he must maintain his integrity. He will grind his teeth and spit, because this is when everything is on the line. The point of no return So to speak. At this point, we must remember the most crucial of all things... Bathroom Humor!"

I also love fluffy bunnies and kittens and goats. BAAH!
