We've been in punk bands, classic rock bands, jam bands, cover bands, metal bands and only have, within the last year, finally settled on the acoustic guitar. It is a dynamic instrument. It's an instrument that you can lull someone to sleep with one second and then the next hit them over the head with frantic paces, dynamic rhythms and blistering tone.
We like our music upbeat and catchy.
We are really trying to buck the norm and do something not a lot of people are into or are doing right now. We aren't looking to sell out, rather, enjoy what brought us to music in the first place. It may come as a twist on an old favorite (maybe even a current favorite) or it may come as orginal songs that take a bit of all of our influences and mishmash it up until you catch parts here and there between head bobs that take you back to a time and place - you won't be able to place it at first, you will just smile.
There will be no formula, we promise. We write what comes naturally and don't beat up parts or shoehorn them to fit a 3 minute radio song.
So come along for the ride, please leave your comments and crack one with us - we promise to make this fun.
About Gus:
Gus is obviously not a lead singer but he does like to write guitar lines and hooks. He has a manic passion for creating singing melodies, matching that with harmony and putting lyrics to music - at times it is very consuming. If you think you can sing these songs by all means contact us!
