Tom Proctor Band

Christine Workman has been in music since she was very young. Singing has always been a part of her. She grew up on country music, jazz standards and Broadway, with both parents being musicians. By college she auditioned for a vocal jazz group and ended up touring with them as the College President’s PR group. Christine met a fabulous drummer there and has been performing and touring with him in every genre since. 

Christine says she fell into a vocal degree, which she finished at Sam Houston State College in Texas.  She has sung everything from Puccini and Gerswhin to Manhattan Transfer and Linda Rondstadt. Christine has sung with the Houston Symphony Chorus, Big Bands and Southern Gospel groups. She loves doing studio recording and has added vocals on a variety of projects. 

Christine has performed on stage in Houston at Jones Hall and the El Paso Civic Center in Texas and at the Brian Head Ski Resort, OC Tanner Amphitheater and a variety of lounges and theaters in Southern Utah.  

Her study and performance of all music styles has given her a wide range, but having grown up in Texas she enjoys being a part of country music when she gets the chance.

 Dutch has been playing live and recording in the studio since 1981.  Son of a singer/guitarist, his first live gig was at 13. His father tried for 3 years to get him to play any other instrument but drums.  This is why he also plays piano, bass, and guitar.  Persistence paid off and Dutch got his first drum set at 12 playing his first professional gig months later with much older musicians.  He has been playing professionally ever since.

He played first chair with touring bands through high school, college and graduate school (becoming a doctor) as well as taking and teaching private lessons.  He was drummer for nations top JC Jazz band in the late 1980’s.  Although he plays numerous instruments, drums and percussion are his passion – mostly drum set.  He is a strong sight reader, and plays all styles including Rock, Country, Swing, Fusion, Latin, Reggae, Orchestra, etc..

He has recorded 40+ CD’s in the last 12 years - the most recent “Labrada Eternity” in Houston, and New York with Paul Pesco (guitarist for Madonna, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Toni Braxton and more).  He currently plays as an independent drummer with over 12 bands recording & touring North and Central America and appearing often on television.  He has performed thousands of riveting live performances and shared the stage with various artist such as:  Carrie Underwood, John Michael Montgomery, Terri Clark, Julianne Hough, Jo Dee Messina, Justin Moore, Maynard Ferguson, Bob Mintzer (Yellowjackets), Deana Carter, Travis Tritt, and Tracy Clark to name a few. for audiences of over 70.000.  He can learn a show in less than 24 hours.

He is an endorser of Drum Workshop drums, SABIAN cymbals, and Vic Firth drumsticks.  He owns arguably one of the largest collections of drum equipment within six states.  He has published articles worldwide, and given numerous clinics and workshops on drumming.  As a drummer and doctor, he has worked for over two decades with the Percussive Arts Society in behalf of drummers, is author of the only injury book for percussionists and drummers, and assistant editor for Percussive Notes Journal.

Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Kevin Till has been performing for well over fifty years, starting as a child on the violin with his musical family, including bluegrass festivals and appearances on local TV stations in Philadelphia.  Within a year of switching to the bass, Kevin was on tour performing throughout Europe.  While in high school, he was the first-chair bassist for the Delaware All-State Orchestra, won an award for his big-band composition at the prestigious Wilmington Jazz Workshop, accompanied his school district’s Percussion Ensemble on bass for several years, and played for dozens of bands and combos. After coming to Utah, he represented his university playing for the Philharmonic Orchestra, Symphonic Orchestra, and several other groups of various genres, including another performing tour of Europe. Since moving to southern Utah in 1998, he has performed professionally every style of music from Soca to Outlaw Country, and accompanied several dramatic productions in both Cedar City and Saint George. He has also volunteered playing piano for his local church congregation for the past twelve years. He shows no signs of slowing down any time soon.

I’ve been hooked on live music since my first concert in 7th grade in front of hundreds of screaming girls. I grew up in Vegas and always had a band as well as being involved in school music. It seems I've been in a band my whole life. I
played with the Rio Virgin Band and backed up the contestants for the Jimmy Dean country music competition for 16 years.
Played jazz, classic rock  and pop music as lead guitarist and play Dixieland and German music on tuba. I toured with Eric Dodge for several years which made me really get into contemporary county.
So working with Tom is a natural.
