Brian Horban: was the former lead guitarist for the L.A. based band Black Dahlia, trained in rock, jazz and a bit of blues. He first start playing guitar at the age of 10 taking lessons from a good friend. Brian started out playing the punk scene when he was younger and slowly progressed into the eighties rock movement. He brings the harder/heavier sound to LIQUID, using his crunch rhythms around what each song calls for rather than just splicing riffs together. After his divorce, Brian placed the guitar and musicial aspirations on hold and went back to college, earned his degree in Computer Science and found the new love of his life. Since early 2004 when the two songwriters joined forces, they have been actively involved in working on songwriting deals, potential label deals while trying to work of developing a following for the band locally in the bay area. Brian is working very hard to make sure he can take LIQUID to the next level.

Mike Barney: started playing bass guitar at the age of 14 (now 24) he has started his adventures with LIQUID. Mike played in garage bands such as Nimbus, The Watch, Friends With Pills, and Kriger throughout his career as a bassist while finding his own style and musical preference. Listening to such musicians as Flea, John Myung, Les Claypool, Cliff Burton, and Stu Hamm along with his previous concert and jazz band experience as a trombonist molded him into a formidable bass player. In 2007 Mike decided that he wanted to step up his musical aspirations as a bassist which led him to the band LIQUID. LIQUID was already an established group looking for a bassist ready to be the missing link in the heavy sound they desired. After the first meeting with LIQUID Mike knew that this was the band for him.
