The Far Away Near The Far Away Near
This song began as an experiment in 5/4 time composition, and evokes a sense of flight and travel.
Organza Organza
Some of the melody is in backwards guitar. How will Terry every be able to play it live?
The Road... The Road...
This song evokes feelings and images of travelling, the open road, riding the rails, and moving across the large open landscapes of the American West.

Brothers Terry, Brendan and Jay Miggins
Terry has played guitar for over 30 years. Brendan handles production, recording, mixing, and synth programming. Jay plays guitar as well as drums, although we aren't set-up to record real live drums just yet. Compositions are written by one, two or all members. Our studio is pretty much a place to experiment, our songs grow out from that environment.Have you performed in front of an audience?Not currently. Jay and Terry had several bands years ago that played live. This current project is studio only right now.
Your musical influences
We are eclectics. Terry and Jay grew up being influenced by the Beatles and the Eagles. Brendan grew up listening to everything from Bacharach and Bossa Nova pop to Daniel Lanois to Arvo Part. Mom and Dad Miggins, who grew up during the big band era and WWII, passed on their love of that era of music to their sons. Terry has for years been studying the great guitarists like Chet Atkins, Larry Carlton, and Mark Knophler.What equipment do you use?
A computer. Sonar XL 1.3. Various Guitars. A Roland GR-33 Guitar Synth. Line 6 Pod. Live Synth. Various amplifiers and special effects units. Our imaginations.Anything else?

Nice stuff here!
Keep your head stoned.
Tons of new songs added May 14. Many of these are rough sketches but have a great feel and are worth a listen or two.
