My Interests

Band Members: Ryan Sterling = Guitar, vocals, harmonica Shane French = Drums and percussionAndre Hooke= Bass Guitarspecial guests= Andrew "Boogs" Alves, Banjo.
Influences: One guy starts life as a "grunge" devotee. Gets into everything from folk and world to rock and roll and plays his drums like Rasputin conducting an orchestra. Another guys starts life as a Keith Richards devotee. Gets into everything from The New York Dolls to Gram Parsons and most stuff in between. They meet. They write songs that are essentially pop songs that have been filtered through rock and roll and all its various roots.And then along comes Andre Hooke adding the all important bottom end
Sounds Like: Rock and Roll.......From the roots to the fruits.
Record Label: A cool one hopefully
Type of Label: None
