Warren Phillips has been performing since the age of seventeen, a time span of nearly forty years. In that time he has played all types of music from Country, to blues, to Classic Rock. In the mid to late seventies he played with Willie Boy, a top 40 cover band touring all over the east coast. In the 80's he ventured into Classic Rock with Late Show, covering mostly NC. From '85 to '88, he joined "Rockin' Horse", a country-country rock band. They traveled the Carolina's, Georgia, and Virginia. Here he shared the stage with such names as Keith Whitley, Mel McDaniel,The Bama Band, and T. Graham Brown.

In 1990 he formed The Klondike Phillips Band, winning the Piedmont Blues contest in Greensboro, NC, and placed 4th in the national contest in Memphis,TN. This brought the opportunity to open for such acts as Delbert McClinton, Johnny Clyde Copeland, and B.B. King.

After a ten year run with KPB, there was a brief hiatus, and in the summer of 2001 he joined PTPTB, getting back to the basic blues and soul he has always enjoyed performing. Warren's bluesy guitar and soulful vocals add a unique blend to PTPTB's sound.

David Garrett has been a performing trumpeter since his early high school days. He developed an interest in pop, big band and classical music early on and played in a number of soul bands while in high school. Going on to UNC-CH, he got the lead trumpet chair as a freshman in the Jazz Lab Band.

He stayed active playing as a wedding soloist; in church services; circus and ice show bands; community theater ensembles; principal trumpet with the Greensboro Philharmonia for many years, and various other venues. In 1995 he met an amazing trumpeter, Jim Manley of St. Louis, who inspired him to retool his whole approach to playing and re-energergized his love of the trumpet.

In 2001 he was invited to join PTPTB, and decided to become part of the group. Since then, he recorded with the band on two CD's, arranged lots of tunes for both recording sessions and live gigs.

David Spell is an original member of the PTPTB and has been playing music since he was 16. A drummer for the first 5 years with different groups, Spell later started playing keyboards and has been trying ever since.

David believes that it is PTPTB's obigation to their fans to create a musical atmosphere allowing everyone to forget about the day to day troubles of life, and for at least during a PTPTB performance, have a great time enjoying the music and people around them.

Garry Gahagan has enjoyed performing and recording with regional and national acts. He has performed through out the eastern seaboard and internationally. Garry has appeared with acts that varied in venues from Leroy Parnell or Diamond Rio to The Four Tops or Willie Tee.

Garry started at the age of 13 as a guitar player with local Rock ‘n Roll bands and then regional Rhythm ‘n Blues groups. Some years later, he worked as a keyboard player (with “Beach Music” groups like the original Hysterics). Then, while serving in the US Army during the Viet Nam war, he played drums, keyboards and finally the bass guitar with the Army Entertainment Team.

After the service, Garry continued to enjoy playing bass guitar and worked “closer to home” with regional groups ranging from “old school” horn bands like Flagstone to smaller blues bands like the Klondike Phillips Band.

Garry couldn’t resist the “big” R&B Soul sound of a “real” horn band so - in January, 1997 - he joined the Part Time Party Time Band. Since then, his varied musical background and unique bass guitar style have helped create and develop the “tight rhythm section” for which the PTPTB is so well known.

Charlie joined PTPTB in 1985 after playing in the Tapestry Band (formerly Ish and the Charms) for 10 years. He replaced bass player Greg Gibhart. In 1993 after Greg came back, Charlie split bass and guitar duties. With the addition of Gary Gahagan on bass, he played guitar all the time.
