The core consisted of:
Mark Potvin- Guitar & Vocals Matthew Tocheri- Piano & Vocals Michael Sloan- Bass Dino Pepe- Sax Paul Hessey- Drums
Other members included: Tom Boshcoff- Bass Bob Rogowski- Drums Dan Zakovitch- Bass
When Armanis nightclub and restaurant opened in the former Kresge Department store in the mid 90's, the five-pc. houseband retained the name of the former tenant. The Kresge 5 hosted a 6-10 Cocktail Party every Friday to get the Thunder Bay weekend started. The weekly soiree was well attended as the event continued for the better part of three years while the band improved steadily and played on over several ownership changes.
