Meet Monty! Monty is our drummer and lead / back-up vocalist. He plays keyboards too but nobody else in the band can fill his shoes on the drums, so I guess he is stuck back there.. for now.
Monty started bangin' these skins in high school, (along with bangin' some... nevermind!) and he and his friends started a band called "OUI" which stands for "Over Under & In Between" (don't ask, we didn't!). They played around Amarillo area, doing the rock and blues thing until everyone got married. Years passed, kids were born, but Monty still had the itch. He learned piano, played keyboards and started jamming with some buddies. They played country music and formed a band called, "The Skull Camp Band" (again, don't ask!) Then, about 4 years ago, some old friends got together and Monty became a founding member of Cheap Vices ("Ta-Da!" - orchestra hit with some really cool, eerie blue smoke and flash bombs).
His musical influences include Jimi Hendrix, Led Zepplin, Rush, Boston and Steely Dan, and the Confederate's version of Battle Hymn of the Republic.
Also has a lovely wife, Joyce, who puts up with a bunch of hairly legged guys making a lot of noise playing their instruments in her house. Thank you, Joyce!
