In 1912, members of the band included, front row, left to right: Fred Curley (Lummi); George Jones (Tulalip); and Alfred Sam (Snohomish) at far right. Top row, left to right are: Joseph Joe; Aloysius Shelton (Tulalip); unknown; Ernest Cladoosby (Swinomish); and Leo George (Tulalip) at far right. The band played in the town of Marysville and traveled to other reservations to perform for special occasions.

Photographer Ferd Brady had a studio in Marysville, Washington from 1907 to 1910, then moved to Everett, and finally settled in Anacortes in the 1920s. In the 1910s, he had a government contract to photograph the people and activities at the Tulalip Indian School, near Marysville. Brady closed his Everett studio in 1952 and died in 1967.
