Bob Schultz- Lead Guitar & Banjo.  Bob was born in Detroit, Michigan & soon after high school he spent four years serving his country in the Air Force.  When he was discharged, Bob fed his desire to roam so he traveled around the country and afterwards, ended up in Miami.  By this time in his life, Bob had been playing guitar for about four years & he began taking advanced guitar lessons.  He soon enrolled in Miami-Dade Community College & through hard work & dedication to his art, Bob received an Associate Degree in music.  Bob performed in numerous musical situations in Florida & also taught guitar.  He played for private events for the Miami Dolphins & was busy with performing full time. Bob moved to the Englewood, Florida area in 1993 & soon began playing different venues including jazz performances in the area.  About six years ago, Bob began seriously studying the banjo & today is one of the premier banjo players in southwest Florida.  Bob has enjoyed playing with Tommy & Judy for about 1 1/2 years & is having a great time!  As Bob puts it, "It's a blast!.... we really have a lot of fun playing together!"

Tommy C- Guitar & lead vocals.  Tommy C was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he attended Wisconsin Lutheran High School- with the intention of becoming a pastor. His attention soon turned to music & he began performing in 1976 with the bluegrass band Redrum.  About 1978, Tommy formed his own country music band called Barstool Mountain and he played many top entainment venues in the Milwaukee area.  In early 1980, Tommy & his band played regularly at one of Milwaukee's foremost country-music nightclubs, Nic's Nicabob, where top artists in the country-music field often played.  As Tommy recalls, "Nic used to have a big sign on the side of his building that listed all of the top-name acts that had played there.  Names like Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Charlie Pride & Waylon Jennings."  About this time, Tommy & his band was asked to open for country-music legend George Jones.  All went well & after "hitting it off" with George Jones, Tommy was approached by George's manager.  For the next year & a half, Tommy opened for George Jones six or seven times before playing guitar & singing background vocals for a few gigs in the midwest.  At this time in Tommy's life, he had the pleasure of playing with country legends Hank Snow, Jimmy Dean, Johnny Rodriquez, Pate Mc Entire (Reba's brother) & Marvin Rainwater.  Around 1986, Tommy formed the band Hot Toddy, and performed around the midwest until relocating to Rotonda West, Florida in 2006.  "I'll take the warm weather anytime over the cold!" says Tommy.  In 1999, Tommy & two close friends formed a production company which was called 3-Way Productions.  Over the course of the next seven years, Tommy produced & directed close to fifty productions, including a highly successful production entitled "A Night at the Opry" which had a cast of 20 to 25 singers, performers & musicians.  Also, he produced & directed a holiday production entitled "Memories of Christmas Past", and a tribute to America entitled "Proud to Be an American" (see the "pics" section of this website for additional pictures of his shows).  Tommy has also performed in numerous plays & he has also directed a number of plays.  Currently, Tommy is writing his own play & hopes to unveil it sometime in 2010!  Says Tommy, "After all I've done with music & acting, it would be hard to give it up....it becomes a part of me & it's hard to let go of it!"

Judy Love

Shortly after "hitchin' up" with Tommy C, Judy's talents became obvious.  She started performing in Tommy's production of "A Night at the Opry".  Judy portrayed country music singers such as Patsy Cline, Barbara Fairchild &  Jessie Coulter.  She continues to provide percussion & background vocals in addition to her strong solo performances at gigs with Tommy Cee & the Barstool Mountain Boys.  For the past two years, Judy has expanded her singing resume by first qualifing locally & statewide; and finally ending up in Las Vegas competing at a national level!  You'll know Judy apart from anyone else at their gigs....she's the one with the great big beautiful smile!!!
