Meet the Key Players (MoonJammers)...
the main team of musicians & vocalists
who will back your tracks
with pride & experience

Mark Forman began playing drums at age 12. By the ripe old age of 19 he had signed on w/ Columbia recording artists "Michaelangelo", after their debut album release in 1972. But the West Coast Rock sensation was destined to never return to the studio; and would break up shortly thereafter. Then, at 21, [home from a stint in Los Angeles where he played & wrote for the all original (& almost famous) Acid Rock band "Glenada House"], Mark picked up a Gibson Tenor Guitar...(with all of its 4 strings)...in hopes of finding an instrumental partner for the cool songs bouncing around in his head. He did...& now at age 55... with dozens of crafty compositions to his name (3 of which appeared on the October, 2006 CD release 'MoonWaves', by Project One); & with dozens of years experience under his belt as a first-rate musician & performer...he is returning to one of his favorite jobs in music; studio work. As the co-founder of MoonJammers, Mark can be relied on for smooth, syncopated drum tracks & soaring backup vocals, in all flavors & styles. In addition, his MIDI compositions are among some of the best in circulation. They reflect authenticity while having a live studio feel; and he can readily construct genuine sounding Bass, Keys, Acoustic Guitar, Drums, Brass, & FX tracks with your music's originality at the core.

MoonJammers Co-Founder Eric "Cruize" Henderson sports a catalog of instrumental skills & musical accomplishments longer than a U.N. Weapons Inspector's checklist. Co-Founder Mark Forman is fond of recounting the following story: "I first met Eric when he was 14...he was playing perfect Hendrix licks (mixed in with his own) on a thirty-nine dollar Japanese solid body, through a Sears 25-Watt amp. He's sitting on his bed in his parents house; & his Mom keeps yelling "turn it down, Eric!" up the staircase. I'll never forget the sounds bouncing off the walls of that room. Those were the best lead guitar rides I had ever heard in my life; like lightning bolts coming from everywhere; & he really made that cheap-ass gear sound like a millon bucks. So my Bass player (Tom Holmes) & I kept tellin' him: ""No, man...turn it up, turn it up !!!"".

Indeed, Eric began his musical journey at the very young age of 10. A quick study on guitar, he moved right on to piano; & by the 1990's his musical skills had advanced him to a position as one of the most highly sought after sidemen in the Philadelphia area. At age 54, Eric has had the honor of backing local legends such as Dorothy Watkin, Bob Pollitt, Philly G, Daniels & Hall; & Dottie Smith. He was also a long time, prominent member of Philly club band phenom Koko Ray & the Club Killers; & most recently, lent his talents to Lunar Records' Jazz/Rock recording artists Project One. Eric's various musical styles & influences read like a list of genres posted on the billboard down at the local music union hall. At MoonJammers, his extraordinary skills will be put to work on any type of guitar and piano tracks your music may need.
