Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
We started in summer 2002 playing cover songs. Late in the summer we started to write our own stuff. In February 2003 we went into the studio for the first time to record "Time Circuits On" and "The Funky Junkie Song." We later went back into the studio in may and recorded "Gel", and "Wanting Her Again" (Ben Kweller Cover, performed solo by Dan Dwyer). We have been writing more stuff since then and plan to record a few more during the summer of 2003
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We haven't played any venue show yet. We have played at friends birthday parties and other events. We have more shows planned.
