Donny Dark – Guitar
Guitarist Donny Dark, aka Don Millan, is originally from Santiago Chile. Moving to the USA at the tender age of three, the music of Elvis, Chubby Checker and later the Beatles inspired Donny to take up the guitar. Beginning with nightclubs at age 15, he continues delivering his searing guitar work throughout Denver and the Front Range.
Mike Lewis-Bass and Vocals
Mike has been playing in bands around the Denver area for over 40 years. He is passionate about bass and vocals and having fun while spreading the joy of music. Music has been a big part of his life since he was young, growing up in a musical family, learning guitar and then bass after taking piano lessons from his mother. He has been a big fan of the music of Fleetwood Mac for most of his life and brings his knowledge of the band to making Crystal Visions’ creation of the Fleetwood Mac sound special.
Don Kalil-Drums and Percussion
Let’s just say Don’s been around the block once or twice having played in numerous bands, and with many national and international acts and artists. Over the years, he has been influenced by many, many different drummers, past and present. Trained as a classical percussionist, he always dreamt and thought he would play in a symphony orchestra somewhere. Sidetracked by a stint in the US Air Force, he became a member of the Air Force Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corp before being shipped off to Germany and England. Upon returning home to St. Louis from the Air Force, Don focused on playing the drum set and began working out of Local 2-197, AF of M, as an independent drummer. Rarely playing with the same band or orchestra twice or even the same band members, Don played everything from plays at local theaters, black-tie events at the many local, St. Louis country clubs, in pit orchestras, big bands, jazz trios, flame-throwing Hawaiian acts, country-western bands, Dixieland bands down on the Riverfront, strip clubs on the East Side—You name it and he played it—anything and everything. Moving to Colorado and taking a 25-year hiatus to raise a family, Don returned to playing in 2015 and has played in many local bands ever since. In addition to bringing the classic rock beats of Bad Company’s Simon Kirke to the BadCO party, you can catch Don with Still the Same – Bob Seger Tribute, and most recently, Crystal Visions, a Tribute to Fleetwood Mac.
