Nick Selchow has been playing and recording music his entire life. He plays bass, guitar, drums, keyboards and pretty much any other instrument he picks up.
Ed started playing guitar when he was 19 years old after hearing the Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East album. "I want to do that" were the words that came to him at that very moment. He has been in bands in the Bay Area since the 70’s. Music influences include ABB and most Southern Rock bands, The Beatles and the individual members, Motown, Soul, R&B and blues, CSN&Y and the individual members, and many other styles of acoustic and electric music.
Also performing with other Livermore bands and artists, Ed keeps himself busy in the music scene. Ed has been a member of Kinetic since early 2022.
Rob has played piano and guitar, and written songs, for a long time. He has performed live for nearly twenty years in a variety of groups and occasionally as a solo artist. He plays keyboards, guitar, harp, and assorted other instruments with Kinetic.
Moving from his childhood home in South Eastern Idaho, Kevin began his career at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1980. There he met coworkers with similar musical backgrounds and experience. Music jams with friends Robert Allen, Nick Selchow and Bruce Woods turned into Kevin's first band, Roslo's Emporium—based on Kevin's nickname Roslo (pronounced Roz-low). Sometime in the 1990's Roslo's evolved into the band Edgar's House with Kevin and original Roslo's member Bruce Woods trading duty on guitar and bass, along with the added talents of drummer Terry McIntosh and keyboardist John Honig.
In 2005 Edgar's House disbanded and Kevin, along with friends Nick and Rob began playing out as a three piece cleverly named KNR using their first name initials. They eventually added their occasional guest artist Joe Lee as the band's full time drummer. After testing out a couple of variations on KNR as a name for this new group, they finally settled on Kinetic. After many years of performing, Joe, and later Nick, decided to move on to other endeavors. Kevin remains active as a vocalist and guitar player in Kinetic and KNR, along with writing and recording his original music in his home studio.
