The Little Achievers blend straight ahead rock and roll, a twist of country and wry, introspective lyrics to form an emotionally charged pop-rock sound.
Imagine if Steve Earle and The Replacements somehow combined their DNA into four sons, then kicked them in the teeth and said "Play rock and roll or your daddies won't love you anymore."

Story behind the song
My way of apologizing to the people I have left in my wake.
Lyrics
I tried to watch the sun come up again But the sour grapes put me to sleep Maybe I’ll catch a sunset But it’s just so hard to get out from under this sheet Busy being a jilted lover Humiliated younger brother Birds fly from one place to another A hundred flaps for ten feet with my head to the weather There’s a little green at the center But it’s brown and dead out on the edge Something’s falling off at the corner Where are we when the new wears off of what I said This one’s for every friend I ever had This one’s for every thing that went bad Mostly down inside my legs now Here it is the best that I know how The best that I know how Kinda sick of my autobiography It’s really not that romantic Ain’t met no one to write a song about And the sunrise can be so anticlimactic
