Doug Mcfetridge

 Doug has been with Brent the longest of the band members , Doug joined the band in the mid 90`s and has been the guitar picker ever since then.  Doug comes from a very musical family and while guitar is his main instrument he also plays mandolin, bass guitar, pedal steel, lap steel and flute.

Doug decided he needed some time off, so he went and had a brain anurism in December of 1998. But after only a 6 month "vacation", he decided he needed to get back to work and has been pickin' and grinnin' with Brent and the boys ever since!

Doug is one of the best country guitar pickers around but we call him Country Doug Mcfetridge because of the shirts he wears!

Doug`s hobbies : Motorcycles, fixing stuff, watching womens tennis.

Kelly Koebel

Kelly was born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta.  Kelly comes from a very musical family, he has been singing for most of his life and performed for the first time at the age of five.  Kelly took an old bass guitar home from school, at the age of twelve, taught himself how to play and finally turned pro at the age of twenty.

After relocating to Vancouver B.C. Kelly worked with various bands touring Canada and the U.S.A.  Kelly and Brent almost hooked up in the late 90's but Kelly had other commitments, to the group Coyote Moon, and couldn't accept the offer.  Kelly decided to take a break from music, in hopes of spending more time with his family, but after long hours at a lousy day job, a severe blow to the head and another phone call from Brent, Kelly finally said yes and is now the newest member of the Brent Lee Band.

Kelly's main passion is music and his instrumental and vocal abilities are a huge asset to the band.

Kelly`s hobbie`s : Motorcycles, martial arts, stupid movies .

(Captain) Ron (the Dangerman) Desjarlais

Ron was born and raised in Vancouver B.C. and started playing drums at the age of thirteen.  Ron and his brother rented halls and put on shows, but the cops kept shutting them down, so Ron decided to go legit and joined a band on the legion circuit.

After a few years Ron joined another band and played the local pubs and clubs until 1985, when Ron and Brent met a Sunday afternoon jam session and formed the very first version of the "The Brent Lee Band."  After a couple of years Ron and Brent went their separate ways only to meet again in the late 80's to form another version of the band, "Brent Lee & the Outsiders."

Ron toured extensively with the band, opening for many top recording acts, and after relocating to Toronto the band recorded their first album "Rose Tattoo."  The band broke up in 1993, Brent got homesick and eventually so did Ron.

Well ten years and four albums later, Brent is looking for a new drummer and guess who he runs into?  That's right folks, Captain Ron is back and better than ever.

Ron`s hobbie`s : Fishing, girls.
