A mixture of original compositions and original arrangements of covers. The band has a very broad list of musical influences and our members represent two musical generations. Consequently it is difficult to nail down our sound to a specific genre. While a song may lean heavily toward rock, there may be colors of jazz in the melody, while country or blues makes an appearence in the rythm.
The Patriarchs of the band are John Kepler on drums/percussion/vocals and Archie Hinton on electric/accoustic guitar/vocals. Both of these guys are veterans with Archie leading the way. Archie has toured nationally as a sideman and spent time as an L.A. session player and John has decades of experience in local and regional acts as well as sideman work with the USO.
A new band of veteran players. There is over 100 years of collective playing experience here.
Playing live is like manna from heaven to us. We are currently building our circuit in Florida Georgia and Alabama. but we will play anywhere if there is enough work to get us there and back.
Its electric blues with influences of Jazz, Swing and Funk to varying degree in each song. We do play some covers but they are covers only in the sence that someone else wrote them. The arrangement is deffinately ours.
