Tink is the founder
and leader of the group. He has been playing the guitar since he
was four years old. Tink has had his own groups since high school
in the late 70's and early 80's. His early musical influences were
Eddie Van Halen and Neal Schon of Journey. His country influences
are Vince Gill and Albert Lee.
Tink has fronted four popular central New York acts since 1979. They are "Vengence" (classic rock) 1979 to 1984, "Mason Dixon" (country) 1984 to 1988, "Full Circle" (classic rock) 1989 to 1991 and finally "Tailor Made" (country) from 1992 to present. Tink is a natural when it comes to being an entertainer. With his strong vocals and tasteful edgy guitar leads....and his gift of being spontaneous, Tink will always assure that you never see the exact same show twice!

A seasoned vocalist
and performer, Al is an energetic stage performer that ads the final
ingredient to the high stage electricity that is "Tailor Made". His smooth high vocals lets the group cover some of todays best such as Rascall Flatts, Vince Gill, Lonestar and more! With the new lineup, Al becomes a senior member of the group, and will be moving up to the front line during our live shows! You know him, you love him, now come see him better than ever in the latest version of "Tailor Made"! Al is without a doubt one of Central New York's premier vocalists....and a great friend as well.I am honored to still have him with the group!

Jeff has an excellent voice and recorded in Nashville 10 years ago, producing an album entitled "Midnight Sky", in which the title track also appears (much hyped up) on our first CD. Jeff has an awesome stage presence that he has honed with Tailor Made, and is an excellent showman as well. Jeff has a great sense of humor and is proud to be the band's biggest REDNECK!
