About Me

Shawn Pasley grew up just outside of Athens GA and has always been deeply submerged in music. Starting out as a jazz saxohone major at Georgia State University he quickly realized that a change in direction was needed. Hap-hazardly picking up the guitar for fun turned into an ambition which then turned into songwriting, then into an original Alt/Rock band. Drawing from influences like Our Lady Peace, Barenaked Ladies, Flickerstick, Fuel, Semisonic and the like, the songs are catchy but not too easy, Rock but melodic and musical.
Jason Fincher, a native of both Atlanta & Columbus GA, moved to the Shenandoah Valley, VA at the age of 10. He quickly learned that music was a big part of his life. At the age of 14 he started playing bass in his first high school band, to date he as played many varieties of music genres including: southern rock, progessive metal, alt/rock, screamo, & punk rock to name a few. Realizing that his life was heading nowhere he moved back to Georgia in 2004 to start over. Musical influences include but are not limited to: Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, A Perfect Circle, Tool, Rush, The Replacements, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Led Zeppelin, Refused, Flickerstick, Yes........................
