He joined the group Smoke Ring along with Tommy Shaw (Styx) in 1972. The group soon changed their name to MS Funk. After touring with Jerry Lee Lewis, Chaz was influenced by Jerry Lee to change from playing horns to piano in one statement. “Horn players will come and go but they will always need piano players to Rock ‘n Roll.” Dedicating himself to keyboards, digital pianos and synthesizers, Chaz performed and recorded with a wide array of musicians including Tommy Shaw (MS Funk, Styx), Dan Fogelberg, Mark Andes (Firefall, Heart), Larry Stewart (Airborne) and Rosemary Butler (Jackson Brown, James Taylor). He has recorded at Paragon & Sound Studios, Paramount Studios, Widget Studios,and Northstar, Applewood, Caribou, FTM Studios.Bob’s most recent CD’s “Romance Language of Music” and “Christmas Morning” are indicative of the direction that his music is headed. Bob has played to sold out audiences at the Lone Tree Arts Center, Dazzle Jazz and performed with Liz Story and Lisa Downing at the Cherokee Ranchand Castle. He has recently returned from a tour in Spain where he performed with Mario Lopez Santos (Spain), Lisa Downing (USA) and Mine Kawakami (Japan).
