Accoustic and jangly electric guitars propel simple arrangements of simple songs with often complex, often witty lyrics. Genres like folk, power pop, indie rock, and accoustic punk get tinkered with, blended, and occasionally mangled. A good time is had by all.Band/artist history

Your musical influences
Let's say that Ani DiFranco's love child by Tom Waits met the daughter of Elvis Costello and Dar Williams, and they fell in love and had a baby boy, and he grew up to be an incredibly talented musician and songwriter. I'd be, like, that person's kid brother.What equipment do you use?

One more thing....I added a bunch more songs, just in case you're interested. Thanks again!
Michael, thanks for putting "Lives of Kings" on your station. I just logged on for the first time in over a year and saw your message on the board. The lyrics (and I'm impressed you actually listened to them!) says "Brian Mulhern and Brian Moore". They are two college friends of mine, and the stars of the song.
Best wishes!

Hi Michael, I wanted to say thanks for having one of our songs on your station, And to let you know that we have a brand new one uploaded. If you get a chance please check out "Brand New Day". at our Soundclick page.
This was good and truly interesting music. Thanks. I enjoyed. Christian Song was great lol.
Listened to "Public Schools". Very good words. I'm also listening to "Christian Song". Now I really like this one. The music is great and I can relate to the words. I think this is your best song so far. Keep up the good work. T
