OUR BIOGRAPHY
A Family That Plays Together Stays Together
While working at the Mary Lee Foundation, Tanner was involved in leading the music for the monthly Traumatic Brain Injury Jam Session. He invited his family to join in each month with Joy playing rhythm guitar and singing, Jacques (aged 7 at the time) playing along on keyboard and Chloe (aged 3) joining in occasionally with a set of maracas.
As their skills have improved, they have all continued to play together monthly at the TBI Jam Sessions and around Austin at family friendly venues.

CHLOE NOGUESS
Drummer
Chloe has been with the Noguess Family Band since her birth in 2014. She started on maracas at age 2 and proceeded to move up to the cajon by age 4 and got her first drum kit for Christmas when she turned 7. She has been playing gigs around Austin since she was 6.
JACQUES NOGUESS
Lead Guitarist
Jacques began playing piano at age 5 and switched to bass around age 8 and then began playing guitar at age 10. Once the pandemic hit and the family was isolating at home, Jacques' guitar skills swiftly put him into the lead guitarist position.
JOY AND TANNER NOGUESS
Rhythm and Bass
Dreams do come true and this proud musical couple are fulfilling Tanner's lifelong ambition to have a real live family band. We are doing our part to be true to ourselves while keeping Austin Weird!
