Bio/History
Lead Vocals – Stuart Bodie is the front man and energy of OOTB. Stuart has been involved with several bands, an a capella group that toured Japan and several musical theatre productions including the lead role in The Music Man. Stuart is a graduate of the Grant MacEwan Music Program where he majored in Recording Arts.
Vocalist – Melanie (Mel) Schmidt is a classically trained vocalist and pianist. She has competed in many vocal festivals and often won Gold with Distinction. For eight years, she was a member of the Belle Canto Women’s Ensemble that toured internationally. Mel and Kerri are "the icing on the cake". We're very lucky to have the variety that they add.
Vocalist – Kerri Bodie is a talented vocalist who has been involved in music all her life. She had eight years of Royal Conservatory piano instruction and private vocal lessons. Kerri sang and played keyboards in the band, Brand-X, which performed in numerous cities in Japan.
Keyboards – "Wild Wild Wes" Schmidt is a gifted musician who greatly adds to the chemistry of the band with his perfect pitch and accommodating personality. If Stuart is the "front" of the band, Wes is definitely the "center". Wes graduated with a Recording Arts major from the Grant MacEwan Music Program.
Drums – Aidan Lucas-Buckland, came highly recommended by Fred on his way out as the OOTB drummer. Aidan is a quick witted graduate of Grant Macewan's music program. Aidan fits in with the band both musically and personality wise, and we're really enjoying working with him. The first show Aidan played with us, he cried tears of joy at the experience... OK, it was actually the smoke from the campfires that got him, but it's more fun the other way.
Guitar - Jeremy Doody (The Doctor) is one of Alberta's finest guitar players. Jeremy is comfortable in most any style of guitar, including: Classical, Jazz, Country and Blues, but his specialty is Rock n' Roll. Since Jeremy joined OOTB, he has improved the band immeasurably with his amazing solos and solid play. Jeremy is a performance graduate of the Grant MacEwan Music Program and is currently enrolled at the UofA, studying for his doctorate in classical guitar.
Bass - Moni Mathew is a multi-talented musician who is much sought after, due to his abilities and versatility. Moni is skilled on over ten different instruments but we're just happy that he's awesome on the bass. I met Moni while taking music at Grant Macewan and have been trying to get him into a band with me ever since. Moni plays a 5 string bass which adds some real bottom end to our sound. One of Moni's little known skills, is his ability to do a fantastic Bill Cosby imitation. He loves it when people ask him to demonstrate it.
