Born in Long Island New York, Don Chaffin has toured the U.S.A. opening for Godsmack, Foreigner, Disturbed, Alice in Chains, Powerman 5000, Dr. John, Steve Howe of Yes, Robbie Krieger of The Doors , Vanilla Fudge and more. Since 1995, Don has worked hand in hand as co-writer and co-producer with the legendary team of Jerry Kasenetz and Jeff Katz from the Kasenetz and Katz Allstars. Don Chaffin recently lent his formidable pipes to the Dave Mustaine (Megadeth)/ Dan Spitz (Anthrax)-produced debut album (and subsequent tour) from Red Lamb, the band featuring Dan Spitz from Anthrax on guitar. He’s also the man behind the mic for American Mafia, as well as Ram Jam, the band made famous by the hit song “Black Betty.” As a songwriter, Don has worked closely with hit-making producers/writers like Jerry Kasenetz, Jeff Katz, Debbie Gibson and Jim Bralower. He also recently launched the DIIBand (also with Dan Spitz).

Bassist Steven G Knight’s career has consisted of playing hard rock, southern rock, country, modern worship music, to ac

oustic folk. Being self taught and influenced by his older brother at a young age by bands such as Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Scorpions, Sting, Queensryche and Iron Maiden to a few. This music has left a serious mark on his attitude and skill set of excellence. Fresh out of High School he took the stage with the 1980’s chart hitting Rock band, “Bellicose,” named Z-Rock’s band of the year, with the album, “Love on Ice” was his first major calling. Rolling onward, he’s never stopped as a wanted man playing with Roulette, Outcast, as well as Michael Gott, Robin Hackett, Jerry Audley, Junkyard Mars, Stand2Reason, SuperNova Remnant, Carbon, WOWU2, Rod Black, Jeremy Lynn Woodall and the Grinders, Billy Joe Shaver, Saints and Sinners, and Ashes of Eagles. A staple of the Texas music scene, and so much more.

Drummer Bobby Marks has recorded and toured extensively with many world famous artists, including Dokken, Eddie Money, Joe Lynn Turner, Scarecrow, Arabia, December’s Child, Rage & Beyond and, most recently, Flavor Flav and the Flavortronz. Known for a sexy backbeat and powerhouse delivery, Bobby epitomizes the east coast, hard rock style that continues to be in-demand worldwide. Bobby plays DW drums, pedals and hardware, Paiste cymbals, ProMark sticks and Remo drumheads.

As they get ready to hit the road with Tesla, the dynamic hard-rock trio that has brought a deep melodic edge to metal is ready to bring their energy and intensity to a city near you!
