About the band

Photographs by Ted Basrak

James Clark  (Bass & Vocals)  James started playing guitar at conception and continued until later in life when he started playing bass guitar for fun. This turned into playing bass fulltime in gigging bands and later joining The Resonators.   James  kept up on his guitar licks and straps on his Flying-"V" to  scream a few solos on occasion. 

Mark Hotton (Drums & Vocals)

Mark is a 40 year veteran to the music scene.  He was playing professionally by 15, recording by 17, and on the road by 19.  Mark studied percussion and vocals at Green River College until dropping out to tour with Wizzard.  Since then Mark has played for a long list of Northwest bands,  "Still Water", "Stone Cold", "The Works", "Big Daddy and The Cruisers", and most recently "In The House".  His groovin' drumming, spot on chops and vocal ability make him the perfect drummer for "The Resonators".    Mark's many influences include John Bonham, Neil Peart, Steve Gadd, David Garibaldi, and Dave Wechl.  Mark plays Pearl or Ludwig drums.
