Chelsey McKayHi! I'm Chelsey Depending on the customers needs... I can easily change 10 to 14 times a night!!! What better way to make a living... than playing dress up!?!?!? I have been in bands since I was 11 yrs. old! As the Johnny Cash song goes... "I've Been Everywhere Man!" I lived in Nashville, TN for 6 years - where I sang demos for music companies & owned and operated a successful talent agency. While living there I was offered a "Headline" position on Carnival Cruise Line. I took the job... and spent 8 Months traveling around the Caribbean and singing for audiences while soaking up rays! (It was a tough job... but someone had to do it! :) Since I have been back in Madison I have played with many great bands and wonderful players - but Party Inc. is a special project that has taken a lot of patience, perseverance, and high energy! I know that many bands claim to be different... so all I can
say is... |
Chris KasperMy name is Chris
Kasper and I play bass/cowbell/sing for Party Inc. I've been playing music for as long as
I can remember. I can't imagine doing anything other than what I do. Since real jobs suck,
I've been successfully avoiding getting one for the last 12 years. Aside from spending
time with my wonderful family, music is all I do. I teach Audio Engineering/Music
Technology at a local College during the week. On weekends I'm either playing with the
band, running sound for some of the great bands that come through the area, or recording
music in the studio. |
