Their mixture of hard-rockin Blues and sassy, in-your-face Rock & Roll, make Terri and the T-Bones a band to be reckoned with.

Terri began singing and playing music at a young age and was listening to her parents Bluegrass band when she was nine years old. Their band was a powerful influence on her musical style, as she loved the rich harmonies and acoustic instrumentation of this American music. She studied Voice at North Texas State University, where she received her Bachelor's Degree in Vocal Performance. Terri was then accepted at the famed Juilliard School of music in New York City to further pursue her vocal studies. However, her love of roots music led her west to California, and Terri soon graduated into other roots-based genres, namely Blues, Soul, and R&B. With her combination of Bluesy vocal styling, her love of rich harmonies, and captivating stage presence, Terri is a dynamic musician and performer. She has performed at the Monterey Blues Festival, the Catalina Blues Festival, as well as countless club and concerts venues.

Morris has worked with some notables such as: Chaka Khan, B.B.King, Najee, The Undisputed Truth, Otis Clay, Tyrone Davis, just to name a few.

Drummer Rick Latham started drumming at the age of twelve. Initially self-taught, his ears led him to such powerful rhythm and blues influences as the hit Motown and Atlantic label recording artists of the day. Playing club dates during his high school years in North and South Carolina, Rick attended to the technical aspects of drumming, but his primary focus was playing the "groove." He then began realizing his dream of becoming a professional touring musician in 1979 after his years at NTSU and toured extensively throughout the United States and Canada. The early 80's brought Rick back to Texas. In Dallas, he became a member of R&B "Bass Legend" Chuck Rainey's band Rainey Man and continued his career as a session player and sought after sideman with such greats as bluesman B.B. King. In 1984, Rick relocated to Los Angeles, where he has since enjoyed the opportunity of performing with a long list of leading figures, including rockers Edgar Winter, Rick Derringer and Pat Travers, as well as jazz guitarist Howard Roberts. His versatility has also been highlighted with such top entertainers as Rita Moreno, Ben Vereen and Redd Foxx, on the theme for television's "9 to 5" series, "Fame," the Quincy Jones produced soundtrack, Fast Forward and more recently the DVD release of "Gone in 60 Seconds and "Daredevil".
