Variety group founded in 1988 by Shawn Nagy in Saskatchewan, Canada. First 7 years were spent performing in Western Canada.

The above clips: "Lotta Lovin'" features Norman Petty Studio musicians "The Roses" on backups, who originally were on Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Buddy Knox, and many others' Clovis hit recordings. This was their first time in the recording studio since 1959 with The Crickets.
"Hit The Brakes" and "You Drive Me Insane" are originals from their debut CD. "The Ballad Of Desiree" helped the group gain popularity in Canada from radio airplay, particularly in the prairie provinces where it was in the "Top Requested Songs" on a number of stations.
A 2nd CD is currently being recorded fo release this Summer.
