Jukebox Zeroes

In the Summer of 2001 bassist Jason Ellsworth and singer/keyboardist Amy Ellsworth (Plummer) decided to form a new band. Amy is a powerful vocalist and keyboardist. She was the main vocalist in the very successful "Glory Holes" band and can deliver vocals ranging from Pat Benatar to Iron Maiden. Jason is an accomplished musician and vocalist who is equally at home on keyboards and guitar as well as the 5-string bass. He has been involved in several successful original bands such as the death metal band "Fall" and folk-metal band "Rapid Fusion", as well as the popular AC/DC Tribute band "Rock 'n Roll Damnation". The idea was to get the best musicians available and play music from the bands that had the biggest influence on their lives - songs they had always wanted to do but either the music wasn't "commercial" enough or it was just too tough technically and vocally to pull off - music by classic bands such as Boston, Journey, Heart, & Kansas as well as more recent "Arena Rock" bands such as Queensryche and Dream Theater. The two contacted Jeff Koller, the legendary Sioux Falls drummer whose credits include "Wakefield" and "Closet Monster" as well as the "Glory Holes". For guitar they recruited two of the most respected guitarists in town, Geoff Gunderson, a classically trained guitarist at home in any style and an original "Wakefield" member, and Eldon Fisher, an incredible chopmaster who also served time with Wakefield, "Crash Alley", The Glory Holes and currently plays with "Jerkstore", "Shatterbone" and "Goodroad". This lineup has formed one of the most complete and musically capable bands that has ever come out of Sioux Falls
