                     THE MEMBERS OF PROJECT BRUNDLEFLY

JERRY G-

Jerry G has been in the Blues scene from a very young age, listening to it on an A.M. radio in the 1970`s he heard a song by Slim Harpo called “Shake Your Hips” at hearing the harmonica wailing he knew this would be the only instrument for him. Self taught until the age of 16 he knew it was time to advance, he sought out  local harp legend Mean Gene Harmonica Machine who ran a coffee shop on Long Island. He learned about the masters of the harp and how to follow in their path. A few years later in a Blues club in Manhattan he went to go see a ”Satan and Adam” show, Adam being the genius harmonica player agreed to give him lessons, Jerry was in Harlem for his lessons for a short time but managed to pick up the skills he needed to start playing in the Blues clubs in Manhattan and the surrounding area. Some years later and now living in Norway Jerry had met  a fellow musician at a jam, they decided that a band would be formed called SIxTIP. Many concerts later the time to start a different band to get the book full of songs written by Jerry out there was finally here, Project BrundleFly was born.. 

LARS GEORG SOLUM LARSEN-

At the ripe old age two years old Lars began playing piano, upon listening the the old recordings saved by his mother he realized he was playing rhythm and lead, this is where his musical history started. His influences are rooted in the Beatles and Classical music which caused him to want to master a variety of different instruments. By the age of seven he was well underway on studying the drums, rhythms and techniques. Incidentally the drums followed him his whole life and have lead him to being the drummer in Project BrundleFly. By the age of ten, Lars began playing guitar only a few years after that he picked up bass guitar and all the while he managed to keep up on his piano playing. By the time Lars was in school he was already in his first band this lead him to play in “Questor” an 80`s style heavy metal band.When the time came to enter Military even the strict orderly life of the army could not hold back the music Lars was compelled to produce. He discovered synth and orchestral type sounds and worked on much music during his time serving. He has continued to build a home studio from the ground up for many years adding and advancing as technology allows, this is the place where an array of different music comes from. his influences include Simon Phillips of Toto, Mike Portnoy of Dream theater, Hans Zimmer and John Williams the list goes on. We are lucky to have Lars as the Drummer, Background vocals and co producer of Project BrundleFly.

 CHRIS MANGLICMOT

Not long after Chris picked up the bass he was playing in Olongapo city as well as gigs all around the Philippines at different venues like The Hard Rock Cafe, various restaurants and pubs.

As Fredriks` father and and uncle where both musicians, the influence was there, music had always been a big part of his life. When he turned 18, he was out at a pub one night, he had heard a great troubadour performing, from that point on he decided that the guitar was going to be his instrument of choice. For many years he had performed as a troubadour with a friend but then in 2008, Fredrik and some friends started the cover band "Nada". Nada had performed throughout Norway playing at large as well as small venues but in 2012 the band decided it was time for a break and Fredrik returned to performing as a troubadour as well as performing at many concerts as an acoustic trio.
