Olivier Chevalley :
Olivier was born on August 16th 1965 in Lausanne. At the age of
8 he started playing the Piano, but at 12, he received a real
electroshock: he discovered Ian Paice playing in Deep Purple;
that was it! From there he started playing drums on his own. He
has been working in the music industry for many years and, listening
to a lot of bands and styles, has become a walking encyclopaedia
of music. He found his Drum-masters in Simon Phillips, Steward
Copeland, Phil Collins, Terry Bozzio and did the gigs with bands
like Deyss, Band'Zai, The Gang, Goeland, Red Touch, Sold on Soul,
So What, etc. We met in 1996 at the music store I was working
in, joined Mathias Reusser for a first try and created Serial
Players (an Instrumental Cover Band). Oli recorded the Drum Tracks
of "The Trip of Kaïkaï" and is currently playing
in Serial Players and the Chris Matthey Band.

Laurent Chalard :
Laurent just turned 30 on January 27th 2002. He grew up in Lausanne
and started playing keyboards at the age of 14. He is self-taught,
swiping tips and tricks here and there. His first musical trial
was a band with Stephane Blok at school. His tastes quickly leant
toward Hard Rock Music. He has played with a lot of bands: Chess,
So What, High Society and One for the Money. I met him in 2000,
when Olivier asked him to join Serial Players, where he replaced
Mathias Reusser. A "cheesefull" musician, Laurent is
currently playing in Serial Players and the Chris Matthey Band.
Steve Huber :
Steve was born on October 3rd 1978. He was already a real Hard
Rock addict when he started playing the guitar at the age of 15.
He took some lessons and learned more on his own. We met when
he asked me to teach him, back in 1999. His musical tastes leant
toward Fusion and Jazz music, but, for me, he's still a sheer
Rock guitarist! In 2000, he entered the ETM - School of Musical
Technologies - in Geneva and will graduate next year. Steve is
currently playing with Yves Marguet and Remi Poussiez in a couple
of bands in other styles of music and in the Chris Matthey Band.
Yves Marguet :
Yves was born on August 8th 1981. He started playing the bass
at the age of 13. He played in several bands such as Endless then
decided to do professionnal musical studies. We met at the ETM,
where he was the bass player of the workshop I taught. I immediately
liked the way he was playin' the bass guitar. He graduated last
year and in December 2000 I asked him to join my Band.
