In the beginning there was GLOBETRAXTERS.COM , This band is a spin off with Eric Cappetta on Guitars and Ross MacDonald on Drums, We have guest musicians appearing on all the 14 tracks, These songs were written by Eric and Ross over a period of 14 Months from 2004 finishing late in 2005. Whatever floats your boat is the fruits of our labour. 

Here is what www.unknownradio.com had to say about us -  

Most funk groups practice for years in the same room in order to get the kind of groove that Capptain TuDan sets up in every one of their songs. The joke is on the listener, however -- they've never even played in the same country! Eric Cappetta (US) and Ross (Scotland) collaborate via the internet and pull in other talent as needed. One listen to these slick tracks and you'll be convinced you're listening to a seasoned band that's been playing together for ten years!
