The lineup has included musicians such as David Guy and Andrew Greene on trumpets, Cochemea Gastelum on tenor sax, Jared Tankel on baritone sax, Dame Rodriguez and Vincent Balestrino on percussion, Thomas Brenneck on guitar, Robert Lombardo on congas, Mike Deller on organ, Daniel Foder on bass, and Brian Profilio and John Carbonella Jr. on drums.
