Gathered together from small towns and big cities, the members of The Rockhills have somehow managed to continue to enjoy making music together for over 15 years. With three singer/songwriters who aren't afraid to speak thier minds, the creative energy and sparks of collaboration have been flying since day one. Every picture tells a story, so below are just some snapshots of the boys in the band.

Phil Neal- Phil is a Kansas City native who began his musical career by singing in his church choir in grade school. In his early professional years Phil was a well-known solo acoustic guitar player and singer, doing the rounds in the coffee shops and folk clubs of Kansas City and the surrounding college towns. This is where he met his longtime musical partner Gary Paredes. Phil's video for his regional hit single, Standard Question, hit light rotation on MTV. Phil has opened for many major recording artists and is currently a founding member of The Rockhills.

Gary Paredes- Gary is a longtime fixture of the Kansas City Music scene. He has played guitar for many local bands including Mike Ireland and Holler, Howard Iceberg and the Titanics as well as Rockhill. He has shared the stage, opening for acts such as John Hiatt, John Prine, Dale Watson, Billy Joe Shaver, The Bottle Rockets, Robert Earl Keen, Norman Blake, Iris Dement, Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul and many, many others.

Doug Osburn- Doug started out playing drums in the Wichita Kansas-based punk/jam blues band Scarlet Aces. After picking up the bass, he later joined trad. blues/original rock band Rhynohyni and spent years playing the Midwest college circuit before settling in Kansas City. Doug played with many popular Midwestern acts, both blues and original rock, before joining Phil Neal and Gary Paredes in the early '90s rock band PowerTies.

Pat Tomek- Pat has played drums in some of the best-known bands in the Kansas City area, including The Rainmakers, Kelley Hunt Band, and the 4 Sknns. He has played everything from power pop to country, roots rock to dinner theater, original material to party and wedding bands.

By day he freelances in web and print design and interactive media.
