    Artist History
    GREG HAUGHEY is a transplant from Pittsburgh, PA where he established himself as a singer, songwriter, and guitar player. He led several bands (RAOUL & THE PASSIONS, TEMPO TANTRUM) to success in Pittsburgh clubs and on the Radio. He’s been featured on radio programs such as Rock in Pittsburgh and Saturday Night Blues with BumbleBee Slim, and earned regular radio play with original songs such as Pink Pumps and You Say. He was also a featured artist at the 3 Rivers Arts Festival with John Lee Hooker, and has followed in the footsteps of the likes of Springsteen, Stevie Ray Vaughn and others by playing notable clubs like the Decade and Grafitti. In 1993 he moved to Dover, DE and re-established himself as one of the most sought after bass players on Delmarva. He currently works with as many as a half a dozen bands at a time, displaying vocal and instrumental talent in Rock, Jazz, Blues, Classical, Country, and Big Band arenas. MARK (Guitar) TROTTER, born and raised in Toronto, Canada has played around the Toronto music scene with various bands for the past twenty-five years. His influences include Jimi Hendrix, Albert Collins, Buddy Guy, B.B. King and Colin James. Moving to Rehoboth Beach 2 years ago Mark developed close friendships with local musicians that were interested in playing blues music. KIRAN CONTRACTOR has been a professional jazz and blues drummer for the past 9 years. Being from Wilmington, DE he took lessons with local great Ritchie Rubini and studied music at the University of Delaware and Temple University. Together with Mark and Greg he formed the SUPER TONICS with the idea of stretching the blues to encompass  jazz, funk, soul, and rock-a-billy influences.
