kinda like jack johnson, but a little bit louder

About Me

we're just 4 guys from mayberry who love playing music together. some of us have day jobs; some of us write songs and/or play music full time. some of us have been doing this for years; some of us are newbies. one of us is even a surfer. we are all quite charming. we are, in a word, stunned, at the response we've gotten. we thought we'd just get together and play songs for our friends, but what do we know? what started as a nice little side project has gone on to play at premier nightclubs and to packed houses all across north carolina, and all in a period of a few short months. crazy. here's what we're trying to say... jack johnson songs are loads of fun to play (& to listen to), and they don't make our ears bleed as much as slayer songs.
