We Play Rock & Roll. What Have You Ever Done?

About Me

Patrick B., Steven S., and John B. have started a band because they had to. We are equal parts high energy rock and roll and a wonderful event to spend your evening at. We could say we are 'award winning' if coming in third is good enough. However, we just write songs that stand up and give you something to think and dance about. There are no rules here except that we are true to ourselves and the music. Dishonesty doesn't exist with us. Come in and forget about life for a while!

the new album 'Semaphore Shake'

Our new album comes out today! The pressing plant really messed up and we have no albums for another few days. They will pay dearly (but not too).  It is very possible to order them from us. ...
