the first two Bygones videos were recorded with founding member of the band, Kenny Graham.
unfortunately, he suffered a serious health injury one year later, and was unable to play music anymore.
a tragic loss, for he was a very talented and gifted musician.
The third video was recorded October 2020, and is with the current band line-up.
