Jane Ogg
Lead Singer - Rock Goddess - Diva
Jane was born with music in her veins and a love for anything in the performing arts. She started ballet at age 4, then evolved to singing at 8 years old, then theatre at 13. She has been addicted to the spotlight and the rush of live performances ever since!
Jane found her vocal grit for rock and roll as one of the original members of Nashville based Southbound Crows, along with two of her Eden Storm band mates. That energy carries on with an electrifying mix of classic hits and deep cuts, brought to life by Jane and Eden Storm’s dynamic energy.
Known for her bubbly personality and energy, she makes a point to connect with the audience at every show, often stepping off stage to sing among them.
Jane is thrilled to continue rocking stages and hearts with Eden Storm, proving that true rock and roll spirit never fades.
Oh, and she doesn’t like pina coladas or getting caught in the rain. She loves margaritas and a sunny beach!
Tim Phelps
Lead/Rhythym Guitars - Music Lover - Hate Hater
Meet Tim, a six-string slinging, genre hopping lover of music.
He cut his teeth on the heavy riffs of metal as a teen learning how to play all guitar parts on Metallica’s early albums - up through And Justice for All - before expanding into the melodic, extended grooves of jam bands in college. That led him to bluegrass, then jazz. Influenced by masters in all of those genres - Hammett, Lynch, Anastasio, Houser, Rice, Fleck -
Tim strives to bring originality rooted with deep respect for the creators of the tunes we cover to deliver a fresh perspective with each show.
nicknames: BIG TIM, Timmy Timber, Timmahhh!
James
Kleppinger
Bass Guitar - Ninja Turtle - Grill Master
Drawing his life perspective from the sage Ninja Turtle Michaelangelo, James just wants to hang out and have fun! Pizza is always on the menu, too. He loves bustin’ a groove with his Eden Storm Band mates and he’ll keep your head boppin’ and the party rockin’ with some solid low-end thump. Cowabunga, Dudes!
nickname: Miami James
Dino
Johnson
Drums - Stick Banger - Armed
Dino has been beating on flower pots since he was a kid. He has played in several bands over the last 40 years. He played in the last band for 13 years. He plays country, rock, dance and a few christian tunes. He is a a husband, father, grandfather.
According to Dino himself, he is heavily armed and a total hot piece of a** (his words, y’all).
ES is stoked to have Dino as the heartbeat of the band, keeping the tempo, sitting upstage. It’s gonna be a bangin’ good time with a lot of laughs!
nickname: Dino
Evan King
Lead/Rhythm Guitars - String Slinger - Snappy Dresser
The love of music flows deep through Evan’s core, as he has been surrounded by music throughout his whole life. He grew up on practically every genre and that translates over to his guitar playing.
As a graduate of Berklee College of Music, he loves not only playing music, but studying and teaching. He uses his technique and versatility on the guitar to weave in and out of any genre. His deep passion for all music types inspires him to practice and play at top form, no matter the occasion or stage.
Evan has been fortunate to share the stage with so many great acts and befriend many giants in the music world. He is beyond excited to join the fold with the four amazing musicians that make up Eden Storm and he looks to grow and blossom with the band.
