Brenda Scallon - Guitar/ Vocals/Tongues/ Melodian/
Melynn Clark- Bass/drums
Randy Hiatt- drums/percussion
Jim Knodle- Trumpet and sometimes
Paul Gillespie- Sax
Influences
Patsy Cline, The Posies, Kate Bush, Kate Hepburn, Van Gogh, Van Vlet, Robert Fripp, Brand X, Chrissie Hynde, The Split Enz, Alice Coltrane, Bukowski, Benny Goodman, Bread, Jimmy Page and The Funk Brothers, to name a few.
This project started out simply enough, with Melynn playing drums, Lain on bass , and me playing my guitar and singing. Just three nice girls, with a penchant for nasty grooves.
But as the songs came into their own they became more and more insistant upon proper orchestration. That led me to ask a bunch of my favorite musicians to add this here, and that there, and pretty soon (ahem, four years!??!) we had an album. So, to everyone who helped me, my heartfelt thanks, and to anyone who's listening , enjoy....

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
