Why this name?
Well our band name used to be Chronic, but we decided that it wasn't quite a good name for a fusion band, so we just took the swedish license plate of Walkers moms Volvo.
Do you play live?
Yes. Different venues. Mostly at Lake Oswego events, like Lakefest, Battle of the Bands, and Java Jam. We also played in the Riverdale School Cabaret. No, not really. We just like playing our music for people.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Well it helps alot of unknown bands, like ourselves, get out in the "internet mainstream" for people to hear.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Depends on who the label was. If they wanted to change our sound, then no way.
