“I started playing guitar in 1987. Joining up with Matt Smith (drums) while still in high school, we went on to join a local band, after a while forming Sinful Way in about 1988. My main influences at the time and still today have been, Randy Rhoads, Angus Young, EVH, Vai and others. After recording our first studio project in 1990; (with Jeff Finnerin), Sinful Way played the local Baltimore scene for a few years. Eventually i followed my guitar to LA, and joined a band in Hollywood. After playing that scene for awhile, My interest turned towards home recording, and I recorded many instrumental songs over the years. Eventually finding my way back to Sinful Way, and releasing a re-envisioning of the original Demo plus other unrecorded songs from back in the day! ” - Jeffrey A. Kreipl - Guitarist - Sinful Way

“I actually started out playing guitar, and spent a few years trying to start a band then realized it seemed like most of the local bands had the same problem, no one could find a bass player. So I switched to bass upon joining Sinful Way and fell in love with it. I love the way the bassline can complement a great guitar riff and really help propel a song. My influences would be pretty standard for a bass player of my age, Geezer Butler, John Paul Jones and I especially admire Duff McKagan. After the initial iteration of Sinful kind of ran its course, I briefly played with one or two other Baltimore bands and dabbled with an acoustic duo with Denny Grace and then just kind of stepped away from music for a while. I always considered myself a musician and wanted back in, but never found the right project. Then we decided to reunite Sinful Way for another go round. I can’t imagine anyone else I’d rather play and write with than Jeff, Matt, Denny and Mark and I’m humbled to be working with such a talented group of guys.” - Jeff Finnerin - Bass - Sinful Way

I started out playing guitar in the mid 80’s after a Bicycle accident left me paralyzed from the neck down. After spending a year in rehabilitation learning to walk again, my doctor suggested piano or guitar as a good way to relearn fine motor skills. My father was a singer in a local band so, in the beginning, I didn't have that desire to sing. But every band i knew lacked a singer. So, soon enough, i jumped into the lead singer position and was also the lead guitarist. After working with a few bands over the years, and gaining my vocal chops. i started writing my own music and getting very deep into home recording. Meeting Jeffrey A. Kreipl, And Denny Grace in the early 90s, we worked well together and wrote many songs over the years. So joining Sinful Way when they asked just seemed like a natural fit!
Berzan Onen is a powerhouse vocalist hailing from Turkey, bringing a bold new edge to Sinful Way. Since joining the band as their Vocalist, Berzan’s dynamic range and fierce delivery have become a defining force in their evolving sound. He made his mark on albums such as InSineration and Regeneration as well as contributing his vocals to some of Revolution, with (Mark Gable), helping push Sinful Way into their most intense and electrifying era yet. With raw emotion, commanding presence, and a voice that cuts through like fire, Berzan Onen stands as a force of nature that must be heard to be believed!
