Who is Night Worm?

Crystal Barrera

Violin, vocals

Originally a violinist and desert person, now navigating with music and voice. Always a scientist - trying new things.

Matt Koski

Drums, synth

“Drums and percussion were what I immediately picked to play in the fourth grade. Never thought otherwise. Originally from Central New Jersey which in fact, does exist. I enjoy music of differing blends. Current favorite band/sound: King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard/aussie psych rock.”

Joshua Kennedy

Guitar, vocals, bass, synth, drums, etc.

Born of music and strife, the lad has found his people. Multi-instrumentalist and auto-didact joyously exploring his own limits.

Creighton Moench

Synth, piano

Scholar and Enthusiast of music in all its forms from throughout history, genre and geography. Refugee of academia, occasional performer of musical theatre. Plays 7 or 8 instruments well enough to convince non-musicians he knows what he's doing. Recent collector and covetter of too many keyboards.

…and sometimes Heath Allyn!

Multi-instrumentalist par excellence, see him perform with DiscoTex,
Yacht Z, and The Eggmen!
