Keys & Piano
Travis Severe
Travis started singing at the age of 2 and performing at the age of 5 but it wasn’t until he was 8 years old and his grandmother gave a piano to his little sister that piano and music became such an essential part of his life. He started “just playing around” on the piano and has never stopped. Travis took lessons from Dr. Chad Brown from University of Arkansas Music Department for several years.
By high school he was in the school drum line, writing songs and music, playing piano and/or guitars for churches and also formed a local band that played in various locations across Oklahoma, Missouri and Arkansas. The summer before his senior year Travis traveled to Australia on a mission trip and participated with Hillsong Church. Travis enrolled in Music Ministry after high school graduation.
Today music is still an essential part of Travis’ life. He recently graduated from Victory Bible Institute and the School of Worship Program. He continues to lead worship for the youth and plays piano in the adult services at Destiny Church in Broken Arrow; in addition he sings and plays for camps, weddings, and other venues.

Drums
Edison Hill
A native of Saginaw, Michigan Edison started out playing the piano under the tutelage of Claudine “Mommy” Wicks, the mother of the great trumpeter Sonny Stitt. As a son of a Baptist minister, being around musicians and church was a normal thing, at that time that’s when the drums became appealing. Not receiving his first drum kit until the 8th grade, he really had no formal drum training. Edison learned how to groove from watching local church drummers and attending various gospel workshops. An opportunity opened to be the main drummer at his church until graduating high school.
After high school he moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to attend Oral Roberts University for a computer science degree. Since finishing college he’s had the opportunity to play or record with many secular and Christian artists. He believes what Proverbs 18:16 says, “Your gift will make room for you”.
Working on your craft is a lifelong journey; Edison has had the privilege to take private lessons with Brian Cupp, Arthur Thompson, and Jamie Davis all prominent drummers from the Tulsa area.
Edison currently resides in Tulsa, Oklahoma with a beautiful wife and three kids.
