Band Members
Much of Fishtank Ensemble's influence comes from Fabrice Martinez, a European-born violinist who is well-versed in the traditional music of the Romani. The original Fishtank Ensemble line-up also includes vocalist Ursula Knudson, Kevin Kmetz, a Japanese American shamisen performer, accordionist Aaron Seeman, flamenco guitarist Doug Smolens, bassist Tim Smolens and drummer Adam Stacey. Kmetz, Stacey and Tim Smolens are all also members of Estradasphere.

Famous quotes containing the words band and/or members:
“And the heavy night hung dark
The hills and waters o’er,
When a band of exiles moored their bark
On the wild New England shore.”
—Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)
“... no young colored person in the United States today can truthfully offer as an excuse for lack of ambition or aspiration that members of his race have accomplished so little, he is discouraged from attempting anything himself. For there is scarcely a field of human endeavor which colored people have been allowed to enter in which there is not at least one worthy representative.”
—Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)
