This band started like every great band started- out of a deep love for music. In a time when almost everything you hear is cookie cutter, manufactured music, this band is a much needed breath of fresh air! With a simple approach to song writing, they touch upon the everyday life of ordinary people, in a way that is reminescient of Tom Petty and Ronnie Van Zant. They have songs about the soul, songs about love, both found and lost, songs about finding peace, and songs about going out on saturday night. There truly is something for everybody in this band. People who love good lyrics will get their money's worth and for people who love good music, they won't find any better. With rythyms that will be playing in your head for days and guitar solos that range from the styles of Stevie Ray Vaughan to Mark Knopfler, this music never gets boring. To see them live is to instantly become a fan. They regularly play for 3 hours, with the energy only getting stronger the longer they play. Not since the days of old has there been this combination of musicianship, showmanship, and a true love for what they are doing, that radiates out and grabs you.
