The Creeping Chaos
Rob Kay Kaminski – Lead vocals / guitar / keyboards/ weird noises
Rob is the only remaining founding member of 'The Creeping Chaos,' along with Mike Stoker and Kyle Mikolajczyk back in December of 2014. Performing live since 2004, Rob has been involved in multiple music-related endeavors, most notably in his early band 'O.W.N.O.' and as a guitarist with 'Ded By Dezine.' He has also been the primary lyricist for The Creeping Chaos, as well as the artist/ layout designer for the albums.

Derek "D-Unit" Samp
Bass/ backing vocals/ bearded freshness
Derek joined The Creeping Chaos on bass in 2015, and has been an integral part of the group ever since. Mentored on guitar by Chris "Doc" Holliday, he is an alumni of the bands 'Strummer,' 'Citizen Grin' and 'Project Stalemate.' Derek first began performing with Rob around the summer of 2014 in their acoustic group, 'The Arcades Project,' creating a great improvisational chemistry. On some special occasions, 'The Arcades Project' has opened the show for 'Chaos,' and still performs today.

Donny Stanfill
Lead-Rhythm Guitar/ Shenanigans
Donny joined the group in 2016, making his first official stage appearance at The Token Lounge, (the night of the now infamous 'Dokken Debakkle.')Donny has been melting faces with his blistering guitar outbursts for quite some time, amazing the fans and deafening the elderly. 'Ded By Dezine' would once again provide a link, as Donny was one of the original guitarists! In the past, he has also been spotted rockin' about with 'Society Hostile' and 'Project Stalemate!' He is often blurry in photos because he converted an insulin pump into a device he uses to "mainline" Red Bull.

Stacy Jean Binelli
Drums/ percussion/ wisecrackery
Stacy took over drum duties at the beginning of 2022, debuting at a show in support of Nita Strauss, (coincidentally at The Token Lounge as well.) After expressing a serious interest to fill in for former drummer David Warren on a prospective tour with Strauss, an audition as the full time drummer was soon to follow... Stacy has been no stranger to Chaos, playing alongside them on several rosters with both 'Mercy Beach' and 'Sugarpunk Fairies.' Formally trained, she has been in a wide array of musical projects ranging from hard rock to dance recitals, not to mention being a professional model, working a number of runway shows for big name clients, including L'Oreal and Wella. A self -proclaimed geek, she also has a mechanical engineering degree and a Masters in Business administration from Kettering University.

Chad Kovach
AKA: The Monster/ The Creep/ The Butcher/ Starspawn
Chad Kovach and Rob K have a long history together. Some years back, the two worked at the same company, became friends and went on to co-found Decayed Minds Comics, as well as co-creating a comic series called American Bloodlust. Chad is a classically trained and digital artist, not to mention the host of the Geekapedia Podcast, and a veteran of multiple Michigan Haunted House seasonal establishments. Naturally, his vast knowledge of sci-fi and horror film history would be the very mindset needed for the task the band would lay before him. Wanting to up the stage antics and bring the Lovecraft theme further to the forefront, Chad was the only guy for the job. He first developed a character referred to as "The Butcher," who wore a spiked leather mask and an authentic Tom Savini TCM2 Leatherface mask strapped to his ratty, flannel swathed shoulder as he stalked about during 'Spare Meat.' However, his showstopping "Cthulhu Priest," shrouded in layers of black robes, chains, and surmounted with a squid-like head remains a most impressionable moment in the groups performances.
