"There's no justice, just us. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust"- D'Angelo
Style-hippies and douche-monkeys. Thrift store-hooligans and tofu-slurping quasi-nerds. People who wish they were trees. Kyle MacLean. Those who couldn't cut it in the dog-eat-dog, faster-harder-more, go-go world of Eugene, Oregon. Men who own more than two hats. Jasmine-scented debutantes and disenchanted troglodytes. Bi-sexual paper-mill workers. The few people left in the world who enjoy candy corn. Scotch-soaked balladeers.
Hi Haley! I just listened to your music for the first time and I really enjoyed it. Such a cool sound! Keep up the good work and let me know if you ever come to Montreal for a show! Take care!
