Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Rusty Lovell, songwriter, guitars, vocals, band image and business director. Tara Quirk, co songwriter, guitar, keys, mother hen and gig money collector the amazing Twin Powered Horpinjuk, an enigma, two fer one deal, Jacob and Justin are more than just twin brothers and our drummer and bass player, they are a rhythm monster. Kind of like one guy who needs two rides to practice. Now in 2009, my youngest daughter, Harmony Kate Lovell is collaborating as a songwriter and singer with us. And in memory of our lost brother and songwriting collaborator, Pete Shifflett
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We will be gigging at many motorcycle rallys and bike night bars in Missouri and Kansas
Your musical influences
Everyone from Lee Roy Parnell and Duane Eddy to Jerry Garcia and Duane Allman, David Gilmour to Django Rheinhardt, Johnny Cash to Frank Zappa It is jam band, out on the edge instrumental, tongue and cheek fun.
Anything else?
Vintage guitars and amps, quality sound and a sense of humor, play tight and have fun We treat each othere as family, with respect and love. We also bust each other's balls when we need it.
