Christopher Edwards – Lead Guitarist & Vocalist

Chris is a founding member of Wheelhouse Deluxe, lead guitarist, lead vocalist, band spokesman, occasional therapist, and the poor soul who somehow ended up writing all these bios.

When he's not on stage, he's usually booking gigs, updating the website, answering emails, designing posters, fixing gear, running sound, posting on social media, or explaining for the hundredth time that "No, we don't know 'that one song that goes da-da-da-da'."

On stage, Chris combines soaring vocals, expressive guitar work and enough enthusiasm to power a small regional town. Off stage, he spends an unhealthy amount of time convincing himself that buying just one more guitar is a perfectly reasonable financial decision.

Rumour has it he founded the band purely because nobody else would let him choose the setlist. The evidence is circumstantial, but compelling.

He's also the only member who thinks writing fake biographies about his bandmates is a productive use of an afternoon. The rest of the band couldn't be reached for comment.

Phill Jones – Drums

Phil is one of the founding members of Wheelhouse Deluxe, proving from day one that a band can, in fact, spend more on audio equipment than on reliable transport.

As the band's drummer and resident gear enthusiast, Phil has assembled a PA, lighting rig and production setup that's wildly excessive for your average pub gig—but we all benefit from it, so nobody complains. If it has flashing lights, digital mixing, or enough buttons to launch a satellite, Phil probably owns two of them.

Being left-handed, he also insists on setting his drum kit up backwards, forcing every visiting drummer into a brief existential crisis before they realise what's going on.

Despite all this, he's an incredibly tasteful drummer whose groove, precision and attention to detail keep the whole band glued together. We simply tell people the expensive equipment does most of the work.

Cam Venz - Bass, Rhythm Guitar, Drums, Vocals

Cam is the band's utility player, capable of filling just about any role at a moment's notice. Bass? Easy. Guitar? No worries. Drums? Apparently. Backing vocals? Of course. Lead vocals? Somehow also yes.

We're still not entirely convinced there isn't actually three of him.

Despite being one of the youngest members of Wheelhouse Deluxe, Cam has the musicianship of someone who's been doing this forever. He slips effortlessly between instruments, picks up songs with alarming speed, and somehow makes the rest of us look like we're trying a little too hard.

He's also annoyingly energetic, devilishly good-looking, and recently got engaged—which finally put to rest the rumours that he was already married to his music. (Although we're still not ruling out a love triangle.)

Rumour has it Cam once learned an entire setlist during the drive to a gig and still had time to help someone reverse a trailer. We can't prove it... but honestly, it sounds about right.

If the show calls for it, Cam will be there—and he'll probably make it look easier than it has any right to.

Chloe Bishop – Vocals

After spending the last year making "just one more guest appearance," Chloe somehow forgot to leave and is now officially a member of Wheelhouse Deluxe.

Armed with powerhouse vocals, effortless stage presence, and the uncanny ability to make the rest of us sound significantly better than we actually are, she's become an integral part of the band. Whether she's belting out rock anthems, soulful ballads, or making impossible harmonies look unfairly easy, Chloe brings energy, charisma, and just enough chaos to keep everyone on their toes.

It's widely believed Chloe has never actually auditioned for anything. She simply starts singing until everyone quietly agrees she should probably be on stage. We can't confirm this, but based on the evidence, it seems plausible.

Whatever the truth, we're just glad she finally stopped pretending she was "only filling in."
