Influences
This list is growing way too quickly to keep up with, so let's just say everything I've ever heard.
hmm, that will be difficult for me since i have to be able to play any tune we do like a solo piece, and my solo repertoire is still very limited..but i'll work on it, and that'll be good practice
Hey everyone. the word BROWN wants to thank all of our new friends. We don't make a habit of sending out mass comments but we just want to welcome all the newcomers. Our debut album is being mastered as we speak and will be released this summer. Thanks again. Nate
