After playing the bar scene in Poughkeepsie, NY during their four years at Marist College, John Santiago and Kevin Cronin decided to record an album of original material. Not knowing what they were doing other than playing their instruments, they found Scott Freiman of Second Act Studio to handle the engineering and mixing. This is what has come of the original songs recorded at 9 Hancock Place, during a nine month stint, having gone through at least nine pints per session...

J. Santi ladies and gentlemen! One of the most amazingly talented young guitarists I've ever heard. Keep rockin' guys... all of you are awesome. See u in NY this summer.
Haha, man John, Bobby and I were just talking about coming up and seeing you guys on the 20th today! Haha, we were saying how it's funny you are playing at a place called Uncle Mike's Cabin because we have an Uncle Mike who's a fuckin bad ass bassist and guitarist (You've probably met him, I'm pretty sure). I wish we could come up and see you man, but at the moment we are in a tight spot financially.. it fuckin blows penii. We might be able to make it man, I will keep you posted, I really really really want to make it out to that show dude. I miss you man, and yes, the music is flowing - I just recorded 3 new songs and I'm in the middle of recording the 4th at the moment.. they are all really on the mellow/trippy/spacey side of the spectrum, they're rad, I really enjoy them. I will be posting them as soon as I can! I will see you soon!
Hey there... Nice to hear from you, it HAS been too long. I would love to see you all and hear you play, but of course there are a million things going on that day. I'll be in the city that night, so hopefully I can swing through. Hope all is well with you! :)
Hi there. Have not heard from you in a while. I hope you are doing well. We have been busy! My oldest daughter is in a musical and a play coming up soon and my 2nd daughter is in the play with her big sis that they co-wrote with their teacher and fellow thespians. I will try to tape it and put it on youtube or something.
Hey John, I just got back from New Orleans. That was sooo much fun. We listened to your cd like 5 times during all the driving. I forgot how amazingly talented you were, haha. Man, every track is sooo good. I just recently got Protools and an M-Box, so I hope to have professionally recorded songs in the near future. I'm going to post "A Beautiful Distraction" on my other page right now, haha. Dude, i miss you so much and I really can't wait to see you again. I love you.
actually yeah, the choking thing is kinda bout that story. thanks for the indepth musical analysis man! yes we will play soon and we'll make it hurt...then make it feel gooood
