Stan Waldman Stan Waldman
Sax

AJ Kelly AJ Kelly
Bass
Raised on a steady diet of the roots of Rock 'N Roll and Rhythm & Blues, A.J. Kelly's in-the-pocket, rock solid style developed quickly. After touring the Midwest with his father, James Merideth (a member of the Rockabilly Hall of Fame), Kelly moved to the San Francisco Bay area and immediately landed a job with the Alameda All-Stars. There, he played with music greats such as Gregg Allman, Brad Gillis (Night Ranger), and Danny Chauncey (.38 Special).

**Both Jorge and Steve have contributed their bass playing to some of The Livesays new material.

Special Thanks to Ray Durso and Joe Lopez for their technical collaborations with Billy.

David Graham - Songwriter

Not a musician by trade, David enjoys writing with a diverse group of musicians.  He's delved into the country, rock, alternative and Americana genres with his lyrics.  He writes by mail, by phone, by internet, and often face-to-face-line-to-line-.  One of his favorite collaborators is Billy Livesay.  Billy and David have gotten some national recognition with songs on NBC, WPN, MTV and MP3.  Graham's songs have gotten airplay as far away as Japan and Europe.  He is also a published poet and children's writer.
