Fred Hoadley's love of latin music brought him to Cuba, where he studied arranging and piano with Cesar Pedroso and Nelson Diaz, and Cuban tres guitar with Antonio Perez and Guillermo “Boulet” Matalear. Fred's piano and tres are backed by Tom Bergerson's congas and Jeff Norwood on bass, together creating an infectious latin beat.

An acoustic trio of guitar and vocals that takes blues standards to a new level, the Voodoo Trio consists of Park Olson, the sooth-saying, guitar-playing singer/songwriter, Andrea Ramire, the heartbreaking, soul-driving vocalist and percussionist, and Mike Sievers, the overachiever who makes you a believer with his piano and vocal stylings. Together, they play a spontaneous mix of stripped-down music which is beautiful one minute and explosive the next.
