Biography
What sets us apart from other bands is the fact that we've been through the rock & roll grinder and are resilient to it's teeth! We will remain, and constantly re-invent ourselves, keeping our music fresh & alive. Secondly, we're songwriters, non-stop. We've been influenced over the years by so much music - everything... Funneling that into the rock genre and creating a powerful, memorable sound that left Butch Vig singing our songs while recording the latest Garbage record...

Great stuff!!
author: Glass Halo
A band that sounds just as good live as they do on CD?? Surely this can't be so! But it is, and I'm glad that I've been able to experience both sides. Keep up the excellent work, guys!! ~Aaron Wunderlich of Glass Halo www.glasshalo.net
