Band Members: So far it's just me, Chuck McCumber, on this original stuff. I've played a song or two with my previous cover band, "Downdraft", in Columbia, MO but all the recordings on this site were performed by me, myself, and Irene.
Influences: I listen to a large span of music (jazz, rock, classical, metal, blues, older country, new age) and so I'm not sure I can pinpoint what influences me to write what I write. Basically I like to write things that sound pretty, or things that have a cool groove, or hopefully some combination of the two. I'm ultimately trying to create my own sound, but I can't write off favorites like:
Albinoni
Louis Armstrong
The Beatles
Beethoven
Jeff Buckley
Sarah Brightman
Chris Cornell
Clannad
Eric Clapton
Nat King Cole
John Coltrane
Cornet Chop Suey
Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young
