Calamity Jane Band Biographies

Kristine (guitar)

Kristine started playing piano at a very young age and became proficient at classical music. The first songs she ever wrote were classical instrumentals. At 19 years old, she felt drawn to rock and roll guitar and that was her next frontier. She wanted to play lead guitar so she practiced all day for about three years straight. Her background in classical music made it possible for her to learn quickly and she embraced many styles. It wasn’t long until she was playing in her first band and singing all her own original songs, of which she had written over 200. However, she took a break from music and traveled the world, quested for adventure, and then went to college for audio engineering and film making. She worked in the entertainment industry for a while and created some of her own projects. Now she is back to writing music again, ripping it up on guitar, and playin’ in the band!

Alisa (keyboards)

Alisa started playing music as a child and was trained in classical music on the piano. She wanted to expand musically so she began to play jazz music and learned improvisation. She also wanted to learn instruments that were more easily portable so she picked up the guitar, bass, and banjo. The different sounds and feelings of the instruments made her more interested in exploring other styles like blues, bluegrass, rock, and funk. She likes to play most styles as long as they express feeling and make her want to wiggle and groove. She has written many songs and enjoys playing in Calamity Jane. She plays the Hammond most often with the band. She loves to play on those keys, but at times picks up the strings as well.

Eric Naslund (bass)

Eric started listening to his friends play music in High School in the 80’s which had a big influence on him. He fell in love with the synergy of music and realized he needed to be a part of it. Though his roots are embedded in classic rock, he became a fan of progressive rock, jam and jazz/crossover fusion. He enjoys playing any style of music. That’s what is so attractive about the band Calamity Jane. It has flavors of funk, rock, jazz, blues and country which opens up the playing field for “freedom of expression people” like Eric. He feels that Kristine and Alisa are good technical players, and he enjoys being part of the supporting rhythm with Phil Vanilla and Bob.

Phil Vanilla (drums)

Drummer Phil Vanilla grew up in a musical household listening to jazz, blues, big band, pop and country music. His mother was an accomplished singer and pianist. Phil took piano lessons for several years before switching to guitar and then discovered his true passion: drums. After extensive performing and recording in a variety of Santa Cruz-based touring bands, including The Meltdowns, Sundance, Cottonmouth and The Dharma Band and shows with national acts, Lacy J. Dalton and William Strickland, Phil moved to Humboldt where he joyfully discovered the thriving music scene with its abundance of creative and skillful players. Phil has kept busy playing clubs and festivals and recording with The Terrapin Tony Band, 707's, Field Trip and, of course, Calamity Jane.

Bob Smith (percussion)
