Quit my corporate job, hooked up with Diamond/Platinum Record Producer John Kurzweg to record our latest effort. John is best known for producing such acts as Creed, Puddle of Mudd, Jewel, Eagle-Eye Cherry, Big Head Todd and the Monsters etc...
John discovered Sean at The Cowgirl in Santa Fe, NM. He approached Sean after the show and asked him if he had written all of the songs. A simple yes lead to John not only playing in the band, but producing as well! "Sean is as good as anyone I have ever worked with, he's the real deal. He has a unique and compelling voice and writes a ton of great songs."
Bass player Matt Deason has played in projects with such greats as Rick Allen of Def Leppard,Brian of Big Head Todd, members of the James Brown Band etc...
The band has shared the stage with many, however they have been double billed with the following notables. John Hiatt and the Ageless Beauties,Michael Franti and Spearhead! Junior Brown, Chuck Prophet, The Gourds, Jackie Greene Band, The Iguanas, James McMurtry, The English Beat etc..

Chavez cancelled Quote-Unquote Inc.'s valid 4 year contract to run
