 Todd Guinn - Guitar, Keyboard, Vocals Todd was born in Dallas, Texas. Always a fan of both rock and country music, Todd thought there was a definite void in the DFW metroplex of "Country Rock", so he decided to form FastLane - a tribute to the Eagles. Todd has been in several original and cover projects over the last 10 years including The Ironics, Crossfire, Work Release, and a Pink Floyd tribute band. Todd plays guitar, keyboard, and sings lead and harmony vocals. Todd says, " It's wonderful to be playing the music I love with such a great group of guys". Todd uses a Taylor 314CE acoustic/ electric guitar, an Alvarez AJ-60SC/12 acoustic/electric 12 string guitar, a 2004 Fender Strat Deluxe guitar, and a Yamaha Motif 8 or Ensoniq ZR-76 keyboard. He plays thru a Fender Hot Rod Deville tube amp and also uses a Roland KC-500 keyboard amp. Todd uses a Shure Beta 58 mic for vocals.

 Doug Pitt - Hammond Organ & All Things Keyboard The son of an Oak Cliff musician, Doug remembers his dad having jam sessions as far back as the late 50's. Doug started playing sax in elementary school and played guitar at 13. Church and school choir were important to Doug in Jr. High. He started playing keys with a house band at the National Guard Armory at 16, which is where Doug played his first Hammond and Leslie. Doug later went on the road playing with bands such as Nickles and Dimes, Token Effort, Nathan, Six Easy Pieces, Reno, Sugar, and other cover bands before settling down to write music and enjoy family life. Today he plays a 1955 Hammond B2 with two Leslie 760's, an 88 key Alesis for acoustic piano, a 61 key Alesis for horns and synths, an Alesis rack for Rhodes and Wurlys, a Triton rack for strings and orchestral, a Kurzweil keyboard and still sometimes brings out his 97 Ovation Collectors Edition or Black Les Paul Studio to do a little guitar backup. Doug says, "This band is so precise vocally, I am glad I'm too busy with my large sound library to think about harmonies. It would be hard to compete since there are already 4 lead singers".
 Nathan Allumbaugh - Lead guitar, Vocals With 40 years in the music business, Nathan brings lots of musical experience to the table. In the 70's and 80's bands like Rainbow, Nathan, Fantasy, Arcade, the Monopoly, Country Edition, Ric'o'cete and 90's groups the Expressions and Nightlife were top bands that were in demand. Nathan's guitars of choice are his G&L S-500 signiture Strat. and Dan'o for slide. His amps have tubes and his pedals are Boss. Nathan uses a Shure Beta 58 for vocals and Shure SM57 for amps. "There's a lot of great gear out there, this is what works for me. The Eagles blended my two favorite kinds of music (country and rock) and I am proud to be a part of this project".
 Gary White - Lead guitar, Vocals Gary is a native Texan who has lived in Dallas since 1980. He makes his living in the software industry writing computer manuals that enlighten users. He is a songwriter and a writer of fiction who’s currently working on a novel about...well, go ahead and guess. That’s right, a musician! He grew up listening to rock ‘n’ roll and trying to figure out how guitarists like Joe Walsh and Don Felder make such beautiful noises come out of their guitars and amplifiers. He has been at various points on life’s way a semi-serious student of classical guitar and music composition. Gary has three stepsons all of whom are grown up, high achieving, and self-sustaining. Or at least will be some time next year—when A&M hands Greg that degree. Gary likes good vocal harmonies, has way too many guitars in his personal possession, and plays at slide guitar and mandolin. He is excited about playing the music of a band he has admired since “Take It Easy.”
 Robert Stanovich - Drums, Percussion Robert Stanovich hailed from the "fine suthun town" of Biloxi, Mississippi...and then came to a screeching halt in Dallas, Texas in 1995, after serving in the Air Force. He has been playing semi-professionaly for 25 years, living and jamming in such locales as New Orleans, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and presently in Dallas, Texas. While playing with Todd Guinn in a Pink Floyd tribute band, the two wondered why NO ONE ever attempted to do The Eagles' music (regardless of the fact that Don Henley lives here). Now someone does! Robert is currently working with several other local bands (when not playing with FastLane) and is the house drummer at Central Baptist Church in Irving, Texas. Robert currently punishes Tama drums, Zildjian cymbals, Roland electronics, Akai samplers and Behringer digital effects. Sometimes, he sleeps, mumbles incoherently...and occasionaly will sit still. Sometimes...... Enjoy the show!
