hello
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Me and austin live down the road. Knew each other since we were children. We brought danny in on bass. Back then we were a blues jam band. Then austin moved out of town, Danny went on the road around the country and learned harmonica. That's when me and danny became a delta blues duo. Now I'm going into a more mainstream pop art thingie I suppose. I'm in a transition period.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We we're a regular band at the pit, now we just play on the streets. It pays much better.
