Robin
Robin Ryme has been playing music and singing loudly to himself for as long as he can remember. Starting with bluegrass and simple piano as a child, Robin eventually settled into life as a guitar player after trying his hand at dobro and mandolin. More recently he studied music at North Park University in Chicago where he developed his abilities as a theorist, composer, and jazz guitarist. He has promised to not let all that get in the way of having fun with music. Now back in the Duluth area, he enjoys making music in many styles and teaching others how to further enjoy the music that they make.

Will LaValley was one of the first students at DeepWater Music.  He began by playing guitar with Aaron, and has been part of nearly every JAM performance that DeepWater has put on, first as a student and now as a teacher and sound tech.  When he's not behind the soundboard at a concert or teaching students, Will enjoys learning new tricks on the guitar, modifying and repairing audio gear, and programming his own synths.  Will enjoys a wide variety of music, including, among many other things music made with complicated marble machines and polka, the last of which he especially enjoys playing with his brother.
