Meet the Band!

Trevor Winder – Bass & Lead Vocals

Born in Chino, California and now calling Summerville, Oregon home, Trevor Winder has been chasing that feeling ever since Eddie Van Halen’s “Eruption” melted his 12-year-old brain.

A disciple of Clapton’s soul and Victor Wooten’s superhuman groove, he plays bass like it’s an extension of his heartbeat and sings with a voice that can go from Sunday-morning smooth to Saturday-night gravel in the same breath.

As the frontman and low-end general of The Tattered Hounds, Trevor brings the funk, the feel, and the fire on every note. When the band tears into “Amie” or “Midnight Rider” you can thank (or blame) him for why the whole room suddenly knows every word.

Soulful. Smooth. Funky. That’s Trevor Winder

Jeff Cusumano- The Drummer

Jeff began playing the drums at the age of 10, exploring a diverse range of musical genres, including gospel, marching band, jazz, and rock ‘n’ roll during his high school years. His passion for music continued throughout college, even as he pursued a degree in physical therapy. Now in his late 50s, music remains a central and enduring part of Jeff’s life. He currently performs with The Tattered Hounds, a seasoned group of musicians, and continues to follow his lifelong passion for music.

Jody Sumerlin- Guitar

Born in 1966 in Walla Walla, Washington, Jody Sumerlin picked up the guitar in 1982 and has been shaping his sound ever since. A seasoned player with deep roots along the West Coast music scene, Jody has performed with numerous regional bands and built a reputation for versatility, musicality, and an unmistakable feel.

Drawing inspiration from country, rock, and blues, Jody’s playing blends soulful phrasing with energetic riffs and a stylistic range that fits any stage he steps onto. Whether delivering smooth country leads, gritty blues lines, or driving rock rhythms, he brings decades of experience and a lifelong dedication to the craft.

Jody Sumerlin continues to evolve as an artist, honoring the influences that shaped him while carving out his own place as a dynamic, expressive guitarist.

Nathan Harris- Guitar & Vocals

Nathan Harris brings a fearless musical spirit and a killer sense of pitch and harmony to The Tattered Hounds. From a very early age he was singing in church and school, and “jamming” with his family around the piano, an upbringing that shaped his ear for music.

In middle and high school he played trombone, playing in jazz, concert, and marching bands. In high school, Nathan learned guitar, teaching himself through tab books, everything from Metallica to The Grateful Dead.

As an adult, he honed his guitar chops in multiple productions at the Elgin Opera House, performing in shows such as School of Rock, Mamma Mia, Shrek, and several others. 

Today, Nathan is one of two guitarists and three vocalists in The Tattered Hounds. He adds his guitar work to the band’s rich twin-guitar sound and delivers harmony vocals that have become a trademark layer in the group’s sound.
