Once upon a grumble, a lanky man began to stumble, into the arms of three faces familiar. "Everything alright?" asked the newspaper boy cap wearing axeman. "Yeah, my man, I'm cool, where did you get that stuff?" "Hahahaha! Don't worry about where he got it man, just tune into the sounds and do that groove you do best," replied the blue-eyed bass player. "We ready to get this off the ground fellas?" questioned the slim 12-string musician. "Yeah Man!" "I'm Cool!" "I'm feeling groovy like PP Arnold, man!" shouted the other three. "Ready piggly wigglies...'Lost Woman,' I'll count it in on the hat...1-2,1-2-3-4." BOOM!!!!!! Reflecting on that fateful day when four incredibly individualistic forces combined their hidden powers and combusted inside a small attic, it's pretty unbelievable to see just how far they've come. Recording their first 45rpm single under the watchful eye of long time best friend/sound engineer extraordinaire, Mike Olear, inside that very attic, nobody in attendance that weekend would have ever predicted that "Tell Me What You Want" would receive a placement for a nation-wide Dell computer campaign. Their debut LP, 'Crimson Reflections,' followed shortly after and in March of 2008 the group's second LP, 'Casting Shadows,' was released. The departure of one of the group's founding members, drummer Scott Thomas Bolasci, was an extremely sad but understood one. Shortly afterwards sticksman Nick Ferrante filled the drum throne and the band set off on two tours of North America. Upon returning back from their second tour, Justin Angelo Morey heard a song called "If It's All The Same To You Babe" by the Luther Ingram Orchestra. This particular song would serve as the catalyst for the upcoming writing sessions that would immediately follow their return home. It's April of 2009 and as I type away I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of their third LP, "Softly Towards The Light," which is scheduled to be made available shortly after the LP's single, "Gloomy Monday Morning," becomes this Summer's floor filler anthem.
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind, Possessing and caressing me. Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, That call me on and on across the universe, Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they Tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing Through my open views inviting and inciting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns, it calls me on and on Across the universe Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
