Jon Calderas's Profile

Their sound and energy bely the fact that The Descendents have been around in some form for over forty years.  It took a few years for the lineup to crystallize, but the core line up of Milo Aukerman (vocals), Bill Stevenson (drums), Karl Alvarez (bass) and Stephen Egerton (guitar) has remained constant since 1986.

Janet Jackson has been a superstar so long, it’s profoundly easy to forget she was once a little girl from Gary, Indiana, trying to make her mark and move out of the influence of her father and the long shadow of her successful brothers.

It’s easy to take Jackson Browne for granted; that’s one of the drawbacks of being so good for so long.  He’s been in the business for over 50 years and it feels like he has always been a part of the musical tapestry.
