F-5

by Steve Huey
Jazz-rock ensemble F-5 took their name from a classification system for tornadoes (F-5 being the most powerful and lethal). Members include keyboardist Tommy Stephenson, guitarist Michael Reese, bassist Stan Sheldon, and drummer Alex Velasquez; their other performing credits include, variously, Joe Walsh, The Eagles, Tommy Bolin, Peter Frampton, and Keith Emerson. F-5's debut album, Dodging The Dream Killers, was released in 1998. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
