About Me

Our song "One Drink Tonight" appears on the album This Is Alt-Country, Volume II. When we’re not playing Hollywood, Silverlake, and Echo Park venues we’re drinking in them. And listen up all you yacht-rockers; we were playing the Santa Monica Windjammers Yacht Club long before you jumped on the yacht-wagon.

[We edited our profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)]
