About Me

Why They Came plays a smooth brand of rock and roll that is refreshing yet familiar. Like a hard drink at the end of the day, their music can help you forget your problems - but also introduce some new ones! Little distortion. No sugar coating. Rough around the edges. Barnett's voice is soft spoken, but strong and sure of itself. Comfortable as an old sweater, and warm as your favorite scarf... Bling MySpace Editor
