Ben Jarvis - Lead Guitar and Vocals Ben is currently studying Jazz at the Sydney Conservatorium for Music. Ben real passion though is rock Music and boy can he rock. This man has been known to set many a song at our gigs a light with his lightning chops. Ben biggest gift is his ability to replicate a song, and his skill in reproducing the same sound and tone of the original song. His talents aren't just limited guitar, Ben is a more than competent Pianist, Drummer and Singer. The harmonies he lays down with Harold must be heard. Ben also one of the CHJA members who I am sorry to say Ladies is taken. Current Gear - Ibanez PF350 Guitar Marshall 8080 Combo Jim Dunlop Cry Baby Wah Jim Dunlop Picks GHS Boomers Strings (10-46) |

Alex Marshall - Lead Vocals (Often referred to as "The Players Player") From Musicals to Pubs and Clubs all over Sydney, to Karaoke Competitions this man's voice has been heard every where, and that's not just because of his Power. Alex's huge range and dynamic vocal stylings is what really makes Cool Hand Joe's All-stars what they are. The words Unique, Passionate, and Awesome are commonly used by audience's to describe Alex's voice. He only took up singing seriously less than two years ago and he has never looked back. Get to the gigs to watch the antic's of Alex and Harold on stage, these two brothers will really make you laugh, but more importantly come along to catch Alex and see why it is always Ladies night!!

James Dennett - Drums The Youngest Member of Cool Hand Joes Allstars. James is a very awesome drummer to say the least, and a top bloke to boot. James can rock with the best of them, but very few can match this young man when it comes to Funk. This guy funking goes off. Come along just to see James alone, he is a wizard, but when coupled with the other members of Cool Hand Joe's All-stars it is Electric with a capital "E". James at the tender age of 19 reached the finals and won this Years Billy Hydes Open Drum Play-off (2003). Current Gear - Pearl Drum Kit Vater Sticks Paiste, and Ziljian Cymbals |
