  • Bio

    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..We're not particularly young, skinny or fashionable. We don't jump on bandwagons. We don't harbor delusions of "making it" in today's sorry pop music climate. Hell, we don't even harbor delusions of coming out ahead on gas money. We make music just because we want to, and we make the kind of music that we'd like to listen to - and LOVE to play. Rock and roll music that's rooted in spontaneity, passion and fun. Visceral, sweaty music played with subtlety and taste - some of it bad. Music that goes from soft to loud, slow to fast, simple to complex, even dumb to smart and back again. Music that rocks without gimmicks or ridiculously loud volume levels. In short, real music made by real musicians for real people. But enough of this dancing about architecture - LISTEN!..
