Influences
We're proud to annouce that we have been selected in the top 25 MP3s for 2008 at Indie-Music.com for our song "It Is What It Isn't If It Isn't What It Is"
What started as a casual conversation between two old musical friends, grew into the rekindling of their passion for playing music together. Then after a steady diet of once a week one on one meetings for musical experimentation and tea, it morphed into a four piece, cross generational combo of veteran musicians, with countless years of bands, gigs, touring and recording between them. With each member contributing his own style and experience to the project, the result is original acoutic instumental music, featuring guitar, mandolin, bass and drums, fusing jazz, funk, blues, country, and an occassional latin groove into a unique style of their own. Backwoods pyrotechnics.

What a fun night! You guys are incredible... Really enjoyed your songs and your performance. The encore jam was especially fun. I bought your CD. Looking forward to listening. Lets do it again... Charlie
Peter - Last night was much fun at the Burlap and Bean. I really enjoyed your music. Excellent set.... and I now I know where the name comes from. The jam song with everyone was a nice way to end the night. Let’s stay in touch, maybe play a little music and share a show again. -John
You guys sounded great last night! The new line-up is just as good as the old, and I hope Randy and Wyatt don't take that personally-- they are both missed. But kudos for keeping the band together and tight.
