Maggie Drennon (vocals, violin, bass) never sang in public until after high school, when she figured out her singing could knock people over. She met Mary Maddux and formed Ceili's Muse in 1989, which became the most popular all-female traditional act in circuits across Texas and the Midwest. The Muse was so overwhelmed with cult following it continued to be nominated in the Houston Press Awards for three years after the band no longer existed. She toured Ireland with reknowned Furey Brothers, who remain her greatest Irish music influence. After Ceili's Muse ended she founded the Celtic rock band SixMileBridge in 1997. The band was a cornerstone of modern Celtic Rock from Milwaukee to Virginia Beach, touring aggressively for four years and rocking festivals nationwide.

She owns Loose Goose Productions, a label, distributor and production house for Celtic music. She has conquered workaholism by working harder.

Matthew Williams (drums, percussion, vocals) was a professional drummer at thirteen years old, and his career spans two decades. His education includes a degree in music theory and composition, along with experience in his own bands, which include the 1980's funk powerhouse Soul Kitchen, The Kenny Traylor Blues Band, The Josh Alan Orchestra, The Chuck Rainey Band, and the infamous Blarney Brothers. He has worked with such greats as Buddy Whittington, Rusty Burns, Bugs Henderson, Cornell Dupree, Anson Funderburgh, Victor Wooten, Spyro Gyra, and the Yellowjackets, to name a few. He has appeared with the Fort Worth Symphony and pit orchestras across Texas, and remains an A-List session player nationwide.

In 1999 he began presenting shows at major venues in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. His company, M. Williams Presents, is widely known in the industry for delivering quality productions, from intimate coffee house shows to large performance halls.

Since 2002, his roots in funk and fusion continue to blend beautifully with the sexy feel of the Maggie Drennon Band, and his talent with arranging music completes a superb combination of musicianship in the group.

Rodger Harrison (guitar, bass ) and Matthew began their drums and bass collaboration in high school and have shared the stage in many bands since then. Their longest run was with the Blarney Brothers, 1996 to 2003, and currently make up the rhythm section for Jiggernaut Celtic mondo-pop.
