You can figure out some of our other influences....but our live shows tell it all.
Formed in early 2004. Songwriters united. We truly love music and hope that you do as well. OUR SHOWS ARE FUN TOO!!! We gallantly and feverishly have inched our musical talent into a pool of noise and will now commence to spit and spoon it to others who will receive...with a smile. Different styles, similar opinions but most of all...its original!
As with Many bands we have endure changes, even in the music we write with each other. Our goal is for everyone to understand that the real message is LOVE. We write and sing about it, even with a lot of political sarcasm mixed in. We wish to be heard, from coast to coast, from Siberia to Switzerland, Chile to China, thats why we use this medium. Albeit good and bad, myspace gives our band a little help on the worlds stage. Its crowded, sometimes the well off make it there first. In actuality, its great, so many choices, so many lives, so many minds to meet. if anything we aim to release a CD of our years of hardwork.
no matter what happens, we are spending the best days of our lives....today.
Much love.
phenomenal show last night! so glad you invited me! i only wish i had brought my hula hoop to dance & radiate not-wasted-vibes...oh well, i guess we all escape reality in our own way and it was a bar, right? the right stage makes all the difference, but kudos on maintaining the flow! peace, love & light
