Mike Tallent (yes, that's really his name!) comes to us from Fair Oaks, but he grew up in Oakland, CA.  He has degrees in both Commercial Music and Computer Science. Mike, who supports us behind his Keyboards, played with the likes of Ian Hess and Joe Gilman during his college years. His wide-ranging musical influences include Nine Inch Nails, Huey Lewis and the News, and Herbie Hancock.  After a long hiatus (much like eMiLy's), he is back with his people, and we are so glad that he is. Welcome to the band family, Mike!
