The Players

Richard Breedon

Guitar/Vocals

A native of Nottingham, England. Richard started playing the guitar aged 15 after his sister discarded the Beatle songbook she had and let Richard learn on her guitar. He recalls “I remember walking to where a friend of my older sister lived and buying from her a copy of “A Hard Days Night”. I must have played that LP 1000 times!” A move to Indiana through work in the late 80’s gave Richard a chance to play in Evansville before a move to Indianapolis in 1996. Work and family caused live work to dry up for some time but after some solo performances and shows with other local bands the chance to join 45 RPM came along. This was a chance not to be missed and let Richard play the music he grew up with….. a return to where he first started with that battered old Beatle songbook.

Jack Fazio

Jack began play guitar at the age of 10 and by 12 was playing bass with Chicago’s legendary Ryells. In 1973 he moved to Indianapolis on business, met his wife Barb, and “never got out of Dodge.” His credits include the bands Factory Air, PK And The Big Stir, Playing In Traffic, So They Say, and The Temptations Las Vegas Review. He is a former AT&T executive and small business owner. “I love playing the melodic bass lines of the 60”s hits! There is no greater time machine than music!”

Tim has performed with several bands across NW IN and the Chicagoland area, including recording original songs during the 80’s and 90’s. Now residing in Indianapolis, he continues his musical career as a vocalist and instrumentalist with the group Orvis & Friends. When the opportunity to join 45 RPM came around, he “jumped at the chance to play music from my youth, the music that was the heartbeat to the development of the musician I am today. I couldn’t be happier sharing these magical tunes with these amazing musicians, and the wonderful fans of 45 RPM.”

Mik Hideg
