About Me

Welcome !!We are a Dublin based alternative country/urban twang 5 piece. We play a mixture of old school country, rock and blues. Our set is a 50/50 mix of covers and original material. Alan (songs/acoustic rhythm/vocals), Satch (electric lead/vocals) & Colin (bass) have been working together for some time but the recent addition of Arty on drums and Joe on pedal-steel has finally given us the line-up needed for our unique sound We are now ready to kick some ass!!!! We've been having fun, working hard rehearsing, writing & recording some new tracks and playing a few gigs round Dublin and the country.
