About Me

Myspace Contact Tables

Our influences are diverse and so is our sound. We consider ourselves a Rock band, but one that delivers broad, sweeping musical and emotional ranges. When we're loud, we give you gigantic rock anthems that make you want to sing along and out loud. When we're quiet our songs shine at their best, giving you thoughtful melodies over shimmering tunes.We listen to and play music that makes you want to get up and dance. We listen to and play music that makes you sit down and think. We play music that makes you feel something...And whether that something hurts or feels sensationally good, we hope you love it all the same.Myspace Contact Tables..
