About Me

We started around 2001 as a guitar/drums duo. Becca Mhalek joined us on alto & baritone saxophones in 2003. That edition of the group self-released a self-titled compact disc of eight improvisations recorded live in Denver ca. 2004-2005. The disc was released in 2006 (it is still available for sale!!! - contact Andrew at [email protected]) . Becca exited the group in 2008, and Neil Keener came aboard on electric bass immediately thereafter. We recorded and compiled a bunch of improvisations at our rehearsal space, which we made into a self-released cdr e.p. (it is now available for sale!!! - contact Andrew at [email protected]). Now it is 2009, and here we are.
