Biography

Tina Marx
Tina Marx is an alumni of DU where she received a degree in theatre & psychology. Whether she's doing on-camera work, voice-overs, dancing or charming listeners as she sings with the Millionaires, she's a crowd pleaser . Tina studied guitar and music theory with David Devine and percussion with Eric Robnett. Check out her bongo playing on You Can Call Me Al recorded live at the Marriott in downtown Denver. One of the great things about Tina is her ability to energize the crowd. If you're not dancing, Tina is probably going to grab you by the hand and pull you out to the dance floor while she's sharing the lead vocal with the audience. The band is still amazed and entertained watching Tina work the audience while singing through her wireless microphone. It's also great to see Tina leading the conga line or leading everyone through the Electric Slide dance steps while she's singing out on the dance floor. Tina loves fine dining, but not too many restaurants compare to her own gourmet cooking. Even so, your may find her late at night enjoying the great late night menu at Trio Enoteca in Lodo, or taking a limo ride up to the Flagstaff House in Boulder or Trios to check out their great food, service and wine list."

Anthony Walker
Anthony is the Tina Marx & The Millionaires guitarist (although shown on the left with basses) , music director, sound engineer and shares the front person role with Tina. Anthony performs about 50% of the lead vocals which encompasses many styles. However, his forte is singing like Paul McCartney. Check out this recording of Anthony singing Eleanor Rigby. Anthony is currently working on writing and recording the sound track for the Electro Steel film named Dead Ringer with Greg Hasyn. This film features Paul McCartney look-alike Mike Olie.

Anthony studied Indian Music in India under instruction of the pandit Jayanth Kumar Das with a focus on sitar. He is the proud owner of many other Indian instruments such as tabla, tanpura, bonsuri, sheni etc. To find out more about Indian instruments, visit Rikhi Ram in New Delhi. Anthony's tanpura was purchased at Rikhi Ram which just happens to be where George Harrison purchased his primary sitar. Anthony plans to bring back a sarangi on his next trip to India. Check out the sound of Anthony's tanpura.

Raoul Rossiter
Raoul is one killer drummer. Always sounds like a record with Raoul is playing. He always suprizes the band with new drumming techniques like his drum machine immitation using a snare cymbal. Also plays in some art bands with Mark Harris like Hamster Theatre. Favorite restaurant is Lucille's. Amazing how much the Lucille's in Boulder looks like the one in Fort Collins.

Pete Hennig
Pete is one of Colorado's most solid bassists. Having studied bass at Berkley in Boston, he's a good reader and able to tackle any style. That's why he's been able to fill in with so many Colorado bands. Specifically, Rob Mullins (now in LA), Vic Cionetti, Chuck Pyle (and the Black Hole Ramblers), Nelson Rangell (and his brother Bobby), Ron Henry, Danny Heines (also with Paul McCandless on Danny's album), Chris Daniels and the Kings, Paula Westerfield, Rosewood Canyon, and many overseas gigs with Hazel Miller and several Department of Defense (DOD) gigs.

Wil Key
One wild and crazy guy who plays a mean hammond organ. He even has his own band called the Wil-Key-Band. Unbelievable!

Mark Harris
Mark has been trying to figure out how a saxophone, clarinet and flute works for some 35 years now -- during the course of which he completed a Masters Degree in Saxophone Performance at CU Boulder. He has solo'd with Roger Waters and the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, performed concertos with the University of Colorado Wind Ensemble, toured Europe with Thinking Plague, performed at numerous festivals with Hamster Theatre, written music for plays, recorded CDs. He has performed with momen terra, Ron Miles, Fred Hess, Janet Feder, the Boulder Creative Music Ensemble, the Rockadiles, Monkey Siren and sung with Three Little Words. He has backed up artists including Cab Calloway, The Temptations, George Shearing, Dianne Schuur, Billy Eckstein, Natalie Cole and others...

When not torturing Burt the Cat with ever-more-irritating saxophone noise (or his trombone with a sax mouthpiece), Mark maintains a large private teaching studio in and around the metro area and is in fully moderate demand as a clinician and adjudicator.

In summary, Mark is an incredibly talented musician who reads, composes and improvises at the highest level. Although he's a true jazz purist, who does not believe in effects like echo, he keeps up with the times by using dual electronic loopers for his voice mail greeting. The only musician Tina and Anthony have met that can play the piccolo trumpet solo on Penny Lane flawlessly.
