    Kevin Carroll: Guitar
    Kevin Carroll is a guitarist and a singer/songwriter. He moved from his hometown of Boise, ID, in 1991 to immerse himself in the excellent music scene of Austin, TX. He headed his own band in Austin for several years, releasing the CD Redemption Day in 1997. The album was originally released in Italy, where it received rave reviews. Then, Freedom Records released the record in the United States, where it was equally well received. Carroll's sound is diverse and expansive, encompassing elements of pop, soul, folk, and country within an Americana roots-rock base. Influences include Bob Dylan, Gram Parsons, the Pogues, and the Rolling Stones among others. Despite his modest success as a solo artist, Carroll decided to become a guitarist for hire in the Austin area. He has most notably gained acclaim as lead guitarist for Charlie Robison.

    E. Scott Esbeck: Bass Guitar and Vocals
    E. Scott Esbeck joined Charlie's band of ineptidudes in January of 2024. Known for his thumping low end, soaring background harmonies, and impeccable grooming, he's hung around ever since. Scott has been playing music professionally for over twenty five years, playing his first paying gig when Gerald Ford was President. In addition to the Enablers, Scott has been lucky enough to perform with Jack Ingram, Jon D. Graham, Kelly Willis, The Sweethearts of the Rodeo, and several hundred people in Nashville no one has heard of since. Scott was a founding member of America's Instrumentalists, the incomparable Los Straitjackets.
    P.S. if anybody knows what happened to George and the Lucky Riders from Nurenberg Germany, circa 1986, drop me a line.

    Keith Robinson: Drums
    Keith, originally from Plano, Texas, has been playing drums and percussion since age 10. His interest in drumming led him to Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas, where he received a Bachelors of Music degree in percussion performance. Deciding to forgo a career as a symphonic musician, Keith moved to Austin, Texas, determined to make a living playing the drum set. Upon arrival, he played in a multitude of rock bands, performing with members from the Billy Idol band and Timbuk 3, along with backing up a back up singer for Motley Crue. After bumping around the Austin rock scene for a few years, Keith changed gears and took up the blues with Grammy-nominated piano player, Marcia Ball. With Marcia, Keith toured nationally and performed on the 2024 release Presumed Innocent, which won the W.C. Handy award for blues album of the year. Through a friendship formed with Kevin Carrol as a member of his band, The Sleestacks, Keith was presented with a chance to change gears yet again and play country music with Charlie's band, where he remains today.

    In addition to playing with Charlie, Keith's recording credits include Americana mainstays Jimmy Lafave and David Halley, up and coming Texas artists Phil Pritchett and Brandon Rhyder, and numerous rock bands in the Austin area. Keith has also performed on stage with Clay Walker, Los Lobos, Bob Schneider, and the Antone's House Band.
