"We do melodic roots music with a twist."A veteran songwriter/singer/guitarist, Rusty began his professional career as a founding member of eighties one hit wonders, "The Monroes", who had a national hit with "What Do All The People Know". In recent years, the sound has melded the soul of the blues, the passion of r&b, the melody of pop, the lyricism of folk, and the visceral joys of ROCK!
