Thanks for joining the band-site. How you doing? When you get the chance have a listen to the songs. I have a blog set up for reviews. I welcome all feedback. Just a heads up on the songs. Since the new mp3 player has been put up. It seems like the songs play alittle fast. Hopefully it gets fixed. Stay in touch. New music is being worked on this month.
Take care,
Nikko
