They write strong and commercial melodies to sing in close harmony, within a variety of musical genres from swing and gospel to R&B and pop, without being typecast to any one.

Their latest CD
A little grab of Baz
The name Baz is Sharyn's nickname, and contrary to some, the title refers to a media term meaning, "to have a quick listen to a small selection of
material."
Completed in December 2006, it is an Australian Independent Release that features notable musicians including Paul Williamson, Anita Quale, Alan Brooker and two of The
Little Stevies.
Musically it's Groovy Pop that swings with light R&B, country and jazz overtones depending upon the track.

Their free music downloads
If you're an artist who's short of a great song, you're welcome to record one of theirs.
Their songs are also suitable for film and television soundtracks.
Baz and Col did write and record the Swagman jingle, once voted by the D Generation as the most annoying and certainly the daggiest commercial on radio
and television.
Col was one of the singers on the Countdown television theme.
When fronting the Colin Who Band, it was Baz and Col on top of the Big M Bus that trawled beaches with the Big M Fun Shows.
That is Baz singing on the iconic Yooralla commercial with John Paul Young, Venetta Fields, Wendy Stapleton, and Tommy Emmanuel.
And Col did co-write it with David Hirschfelder.
Baz did win an Australian Radio Records Award - the forerunner of an ARIA.
That was Col acting as a kid on the Early Bird Show starring Daryl Cotton.
Baz and Col did sing Amazing Grace for the Pope at the MCG!
