Frankie Lewis has been playing guitar and writing songs since he was 14, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. He has copyrighted over 200 songs! At night he moonlights as a mole, holes up in his studio and re-records his original tunes over and over and over and over. It just drives his wife and parrot crazy! Some of his song lyrics are worldly and materialistic, others have spiritual overtones, but all are thought-provoking and melodic. Frankie Lewis sometimes has laughing fits on stage while he is singing. Unfortunately, this is usually contagious, but fellow band members sober up when they see his hair.

John started playing the guitar because his older sister was doing it and she was the favorite. Scarred for life, he vowed to get better. It's amazing what a little sibling rivalry will help to accomplish! John has played around the USA and the UK in folk, rock, country, and progressive original music groups. He even played in an Elvis impersonator band in Biloxi, Mississippi, until his dismissal due to being "follically challenged." The ACLU wouldn't touch the lawsuit. He now resides in Houston under the alias, Reverend Johnny. Come hear him preach with his guitar - and keys!

Roxy is a former flower child of the 60's and is still in a tie-dyed, bell-bottomed state of mind. Her musical career started when her mother took her by the hand and they walked to church, there to join the gospel choir. Roxy began piano lessons as a child in Alaska and later, in her 20's, she taught herself guitar. Since 1980 Roxy has been a support musician in various garage bands and two Houston dance bands - Split Image and Urgent Beat - playing guitar, keyboards, and singing backup harmonies. Roxy picked up the bass for the first time when Hidden Agenda was organized in early 1997 - it's her favorite instrument so far. So much so that she has 9 ... and counting!

Cindy has been inspired by drummers and percussionists going back to the time she saw Ringo Starr at the Beatles concert in 1965. In middle-age rebellion of her Mother’s rule that “Young Ladies Do Not Play the Drums”, she has become a non-stop, jingling, rattling, chiming, thumping percussionist. Earlier diversions at piano, violin and guitar did not satisfy the need to ‘shake, rattle, and roll’. Now once started Cindy cannot stop. Often heard from co-workers, family, store clerks, and total strangers, “Could you please stop tapping on that??!!" In addition to playing percussion with Hidden Agenda, Cindy also plays drums with "Rock'n Horse".

Introducing the foundation and most important part of the band! Alan grew up with diverse musical influences and a passion for drums. His father played saxophone and clarinet, and was a big band leader in New York, performing with Benny Goodman, Dizzy Gillespie and Edie Gorme as well as various symphony orchestras. Wow! His mother always had music of every imaginable style playing in the house and his sister was a singer/guitarist. Alan is a veteran of several rock, R&B and blues bands in Houston and Pennsylvania, including Jamie Kay and the Stereo (Budweiser Band contest winner and Benson and Hedges Electric Nights finalist), Inside/Out, Felis Leo, The Bricklayers Arm and the Bob Buckingham Blues Band. This all sounds so serious, but really, Alan is a closet comedian. You'll find out when you talk to him.
