Drummer Dena Tauriello is a member of the national act Antigone Rising. She met Mark Hudson, who was Ringo's producer for ten years. Mark Hudson went to Ringo and told him that "you got to hear this girl, she is a female version of you (Ringo)." Mark deemed Dena is a "female Ringo". Ringo autographed his drum sticks and they were given to Dena by Hudson.

Keyboardist/Guitarist Kerri Parrott was a young teen when John Lennon was killed in 1980 and shortly thereafter had "a teenager's" dream of playing in a band with Lennon's son, Julian. Her resolve eventually earned her a telephone conversation with Cynthia Lennon.  Later, Kerri wrote a song about John and spoke to Lennon's former girlfriend May Pang. Pang said to send the song. Unfortunately, Kerri never did! You can read about Kerri's coversation with Cynthia on Cynthia's official website- http://www.lennon.net/reflections/encounters_kerri.shtml
