| In 1997 Mike Crandall, Doug
Chapline,
and K.O. Skinsnes decided to put a band together composed of
friends that all had good day gigs (regular jobs). They decided
on a rhythm section with 4 horns and a lead female vocalist
(chick singer) in order to get a powerful sound. Two years later,
Reno Jones was born.
Reno Jones consists of Jerri-Sue Dawson
on lead vocals, Doug Chapline on guitar and lead vocals,
Mike Burnham on the bass, Larry Paschall on drums,
David
Jones on
keyboards, Roger Ehrnman on Tenor Sax, Chris
Searight on Baritone Sax, Mike Crandall on Trombone and
vocals, and K.O. Skinsnes on Trumpet and Flugelhorn.
