Influences: This is almost all encompassing - as we listen to everything from all time periods and across cultures...But hmmmmm....let's see...Robert Johnson, Elmore James, Etta James, Raul Midon, Jeff Buckley, Edith Piaf, Nina Simon, Oliver Mtukudzi, John Butler Trio, White Stripes, The Cult, Kate Bush, Rory Block, Sass Jordan, Fleetwood Mac, Paranoid Social Club, State Radio, Declan DeBarra - all the great emotive muscians...ya get the idea...maybe?
Sounds Like: On a very basic level, the music is some sort of hybrid cross of delta blues influenced-torch songs...with a kaliedescope range of other influential (to us) musicians and styles woven throughout. The sound is minimalist by choice and necessity, with a real, live organic thing going on. More than anything else the music is emotional in nature - lyrically and in intent. We want you to feel something when you listen. Something else cool we've discovered playing live is that we remind people of so many different artists across genres, and yet they all say we sound "original" Not sure what it means, exactly, to be the same, yet different - but we'll take it as compliment! THANKS FRIENDS!
