HI. We're Brian Mauer and Ben Verson. We've been writing, recording and performing music for over 35 years together. What do we call it? HMMMMMMMMMM, we're not sure. We incorporate any and all styles. We hope you will find that we have succeeded in homogenizing a unique style. Influences range from classic rock (Beatles, Who, Zeppelin) to Folk, slip in a bit of bluegrass, and an equal amount of metal, and you get...Something, without a name.

Story behind the song
A beautiful poem sent to me by a friend in Perth Australia, that I converted to an anti-war/peace song. This is using our best "Ed Robertson" chord structures.
Lyrics
A light is stirring from my sleep; Follow me and I will show you night. I’ll take you to the end of the earth The star I see, my guide, my light. A knight in shining armour’s your hero Black hole taunting, never far away Will rid you of your evil thoughts Even though you can never stay. Do you believe in the magic of love? Do you believe the stars that shine from up above? Do you believe the peace of a white dove? There’s no need to push and shove When you believe in the magic of love. (Verse 2) Turning unto you for pleasure Inward passing of the night. You nor I bear signs of pain Yet shall we be o’er the fight. Destroying homes, and lives and lovers The eyes of governments mean some Displacing other’s hearts with sorrow. Endless, winless war means none. (Chorus) (Verse 3) Their minds are confused, and so am I Seems like nothing in their world is free. For “independence and freedom” they go to War, I hear, to rescue me. The war surrounds us everyday. Reports of bad news never cease. After all the sorrow, will it Ever end? I live for peace. (Chorus) (2x) (Intro Progression)
