Unique new sound....killer chops....excellent recording!

I'm really impressed by this San Francisco Bay area band, and this debut album is dynamite. Really unique blend of Rock, Funk, Latin and Blues rhythms with solid acoustic and electric guitar work. These are world-class musicians, and they seem to have found a new pallete to play with.....Indian tabla, congas, timbales, etc. used in bluegrass(!), funk, rock and jazz constructions. Great songs, especially the vocal pieces sung by Heath (bass), that I suspect will find the way to the airwaves, and brilliant folk/rock/jammin' instrumentals featuring masterful acoustic guitar work, and probably the best new electric guitarist I've heard in the last decade. Excellent recording quality despite being a self-produced (read "low budget") debut album, but I'm willing to bet the next one will show up on a major label.

Excellent listening, this band is going places!

I thoroughly dug this album-highly recommend it and appreciate that it involves only human elements and is not a computerized nightmare, but a group of talented musicians putting in the time to make some quality sound!
