IAN HILL

Bass, Lead and Backing Vocals, Guitars,

Mandolin, Saxophone

 

Ian's a Red Sox fan, aces promoter and agent provocateur -- assuming you're the one that needs provoking.  Having graduated from the Berklee College of Music in Boston and the Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, he knows that fancy music means nothing if it ain't got soul.

 

Here in Seattle, Ian writes and performs on his own, with the Dunnhill Players and the Brian Marshall Band.  In the past, Ian played in bands too numerous to recount -- their vast number by no means diminishing their legend and stature.

 

Ian also heads Seattle booking agency Flying Irishman Productions and is co-owner of the legendary West Seattle club The Admiral Benbow.  In other words, RebelMart's in with the booker there.

PATRICK SMAIL

Guitar, sometimes Drums, Backing Vocals

 

Patrick crossed not one but two mountain ranges to end up in RebelMart.  Originally from Colorado, Patrick is one of Seattle's great musicians.  A writer and singer of countless songs, many of the boxcar train variety, Patrick plays drums with the same fervor and creativity.

 

RebelMart ain't Patrick's only ensemble.  He plays guitar and keyboards for Seattle's seminal big-sound outfit The Bend, and also hosts the city's best singer/songwriter night, the Starlite, on Tuesday evenings at Shadowland in West Seattle.

 

Patrick will also regale you with infinite analysis of the t.v. show Adventuretime.
