Uriah Duffy (bass) picked up the bass at 10 years old.

For 5 years he was a member of the legendary rock group Whitesnake. While doing that, he maintained a healthy workload with credits including the likes of Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Too Short, Sly & the Family Stone, Pat Travers, Starship & more. Kevin Aiello (drums) Kevin brings versatility and an amazing range of musical knowledge to Points North.
