Don Bryan -- keys, vocals
Don Bryan (keyboards) was introduced to music at the age of six months when he stumbled on a local ad in "People" magazine for free piano lessons. Soon thereafter, Don expanded his training, studying piano with Elton John, Liberace, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. As a child prodigy, Don performed frequently with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, the Nelson Riddle Orchestra, the Electric Light Orchestra, and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. As a teenager, he began performing solo acts at the Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, Radio City Music Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, the Grand Ole Opry, and The Sands Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Upon graduating Suma Cum Laude from Harvard University with a triple major in international tax law, biomedical warfare, and early child psychology, Don turned his attention to the business world. In the late 1970s, Don purchased Walmart from the founding family and grew sales to over $850MM annually, eventually selling the retail giant in 1988 for $4.7BB through an initial public offering. Don is a past board member of the Mayo Clinic, the Society of Petroleum Engineers, and the United Nations. He is past president of the Girl Scouts of America, the United States of America, the National Football League, and the Salvation Army. Don served his country faithfully as vice admiral in the Pacific Theater during World War II, earning the prestigious Purple Heart, the Flying Cross, and the Raspberry Beret. When not performing, Don can be found relaxing on the French Riviera, swimming the English Channel, scuba diving in the Arctic Circle, or writing poetry from his summer home in the Galápagos Islands. In November of 2021, Don returned to his initial passion of music, securing the keyboard position with Yacht Rock USA, but not without controversy, disturbing audience complaints, and disappointing reviews from music critics at Rolling Stone magazine. As of this posting (Jun 16, 2022), Don remains a member of Yacht Rock USA, albeit on an indefinite double-secret probation.

Won Kim -- electric guitar
Won was born in South Korea and started playing guitar in the 10th grade, inspired by the late 80's music. He was self-taught, by wearing out the needle on his dad's turntable and stretching cassette tapes.
After playing in a couple of school bands, Won took a 20-year break from playing - partially due to the death of hair metal and mainly due to serving in the military then later focusing on his education and engineering career.
While he was not playing music, he still remained a big music fan. Through those years, he immersed himself in rock/jazz fusion, soul, R&B, funk, and the blues. The guitar bug returned in mid-2010's, and he started collecting guitars and playing again.
Since late 2021, Won has been active in the Houston cover band scene. Won enjoys playing the music he grew up listening to, and any rock and pop with a hint of jazz. His favorite artists include Steely Dan, Stevie Wonder, Oz Noy, Robben Ford, Tower of Power, Snarky Puppy, Lettuce, and Jacob Collier.
Mark Burgess -- bass guitar, vocals
Mark comes from a musical family, and by 1973 was the full-time bassist for his father’s (Jerry Burgess) dance band. In 1978, his family moved from North Texas to the Houston area and began performing in local hotels, country clubs, restaurants, and private parties. By 1986, Mark was an established freelance, first-call bassist. Mark has the great fortune to have worked with the very best Houston musicians in different venues, playing rock, jazz, country, Latin, blues, and contemporary music. Mark decided to take his music career part time in 1993 and now runs a real estate business, while enjoying playing bass at church and with Yacht Rock USA.
