Turbo first met Kenn at the NAMM show where he was introduced to his mad bass skills. He's not just any bass player, but a producer, composer, clinician, instructor and published author. He has played with great artists, such as Tower of Power, Stanley Jordan, Wynton Marsalis, and members of the Miles Davis band to name a few. Visit Kenn on myspace

Lyndsay Pruett - Fiddle

Lyndsay is a versatile and capricious fiddle player whom we've had the pleasure of playing with.  She is a recent Nashville to Asheville transplant after completing her degree in violin performance at Belmont University.  Her playing styles range from blues and bluegrass to various forms of Latin/Brazilian music to trip hop/hip hop scats.

Lyndsay is a core member of Futureman and the Black Mozart Ensemble, is half of an acoustic duo called The Golden Ticket, and currently plays in the Taylor Martin band in Asheville.  You too can find her if you need strings on an album or an improvisational fiddle part on a recording or performance. And she's always down to jam.  Visit Lyndsay on myspace
