Mayfield is Stephen Brannen and whomever is interested in playing along with him. Stephen writes all the songs and plays guitar, bass and drums. Most songs are introspective and self-critical, highlighting personal flaws rather than pointing the self-righteous finger of judgement at a flawed humanity. Hopefully you'll see a little of yourself in these songs.
