we've got a new song up if you'd like to listen.

in fact, please listen!

it was recorded in pete's front room so sounds a bit scratchy but it'll do for now.

Hey guys, nice sound! You sound tight, how long have you been together? Who writes or is it a group effort?

Would you guys accept a complimentary membership to ifyoulovemusic? Would be great to have you there? If so just message me a name and email address and I will get an invite over.

Keep making great sounds!

Hey Guys, digging the recordings. Can only listen to them through my weenie laptop speakers at the mo, so they all sound like early 90s indie records with nice scratchy telecaster tones, which is odd, since neither of you guitar boys play telecasters!!

Sounding good anyway, see you tomorrow at the jig.

P.S. Nice b&w panoramic shot of you guys - J, you look like you're contemplating hurling into your glass! Or had that just happened?!

hello
we're new around here. but we like your songs- kindof classic-rock inspired modern indie. s'good. and we're also impressed by your whopping ammound of gigs you've got coming up. what's the secret?

just to say hi then, and could you have a listen to our (somewhat old) demos and tell us what you think of them? we'll have new ones on the way soon.

cheers,
pete.
