Influences
Anything dark. From Steinbeck to Bukowski, and from Vlautin to Thompson. Words guide the music so I guess the biggest influences in this collection are the stories of old.
Sounds Like
Imagine you are walking through the street on a dark warm night. The street lights and the signs reflect in the pools of oily water at the roadside, illuminating your stride.
What your listening to is the groove. They are songs with stories for the ear to follow as your eyes drift over the life of the night. Allow the words to slip into your consciousness as the characters take you into a world of ugly faces and cheating hearts.
Turn the sound up loud and allow yourself to breathe....
Hi all. Oh my, things have been pretty hectic for us of late. Been doing a few acoustic shows (keeping the eye in and all that). But, also been busy with a load of new material that is sounding darker than ever. So download the tracks, plug 'em into your IPod and go for a walk in a dark city. That would be my advice, anyway.

We just kinda let the studio engineer do what he wanted, he was very good, but perhaps a little trigger-happy on the reverb! Anyway, looking forward to sunday, Id like to hear your songs played live :)
