The Story Teller .. Bryan Hicks .. as he entered the stage to begin ''Ghosts of Christmas Eve'' .. the West group has an equally talented Story Teller .. to even be in this role takes a lot of talent .. they are called 'Story Tellers' because that is what they do .. it is a part of them, just as the words and music are part of a vocalist .. we thank Bryan for his talents and putting his heart and soul into each word © All Rights Reserved

Mee Eun Kim - keyboards .. from Music and Art Interviews by Dan Roth (done in 2012): ''Most in the USA know Mee Eun Kim as a longtime keyboardist for TSO East (2000-2002, 2004-2007, 2011-2012). What many may not be aware of is this lovely Korean born musician has a multitude of other musical endeavors going on in Europe and Asia, including co-producing an album by Tina Turner, touring with German rocker Peter Maffay, and recently releasing a CD where she is singing lullabies in the German language.''
