Big Ruby Valdez
Rhodes and Organ
Big Ruby Valdez doesn’t just play keys—she orchestrates sonic heists.
Trained in the fine art of harmonic espionage, Valdez spent years navigating the depths of first-call session work, before vanishing into the shadows, resurfacing only when the mission demanded it. With a left hand that walks bass lines with groove and precision and a right hand that can make a Rhodes whisper, snarl, or cry, she is both the velvet glove and the iron fist of the ensemble.
Johnny "Jitters" McDaniels
Guitar and Bass
Johnny "Jitters" McDaniels is a seasoned jazz bassist with deep roots in tradition and an unshakable instinct for groove. Equally adept at walking a bassline or locking into a funk pocket, he brings a sharp melodic sense and rhythmic precision to both bass and guitar. Years of touring and studio work have made him adaptable to any setting, but The Cloak and Dagger Collective allows him to move freely between roles, always keeping one foot in the groove and the other in the unknown.
Stewart "Snap" Malone
Drumset
Stewart “Snap” Malone plays like a man with an escape plan—always a step ahead. A percussionist of surgical precision and reckless abandon, he’s been the rhythmic backbone for projects spanning avant-garde jazz, greasy funk, and left-field rock. However, it’s in the lawless realm of The Cloak and Dagger Collective where his true nature is revealed. Whether laying down a groove so deep you could disappear into it or detonating polyrhythmic fireworks with the casual finesse of a safecracker, Malone is the ticking clock that keeps this covert operation in motion—because in a project like this, time is always of the essence.
