Sounds LikeIt is always hard to say what your music sounds like. We have tried many different approaches to music over the years and ended here at writting good pop songs influenced by some of the artists we cover. We play covers of 50's and 60's rock and roll such as; Bo Diddley, The Who, The Beatles, The Kinks, Chuck Berry, Fats Domino, and so on. When it comes down to what you think we sound like, I think it all depends on your personal taste and what you want us to sound like. Send us a comment and let us know what you think.
