Band Members:
DAVE: Singer, songwriter. Dave is an outstanding frontman and has one of the most unique and inspired voices around. He is also the primary lyricist for the band. He loves to perform live and it shows in every second of his singing on stage. Dave sometimes grows a beard when he is hiding from the feds.JOSH: (aka Bags) Guitar, songwriter. Josh is the main musical songwriter in the band. He has a real talent for writing catchy melodic riffs on the guitar. Be warned though....his songs will stick in your head all day(whether you like the song or not-lol)!!!ANDREW: Lead Guitar. Andrew is one of those guitarists that really compliments the songs well. He writes memorable solos and plays tasteful parts that work great with Josh's rhythms. Andrew is an avid surfer so make sure you yell "play wipeout dude" at the next gig.JP: Bass Guitar JP is: part melodic, part funky, part rhythmic, and always in the pocket. He has a great ear for the songs and comes up with some very inventive bass lines. JP is an asset to the band. Oh, and he builds robots.PATRICK: Drums. Patrick is the final ingredient in the mix. Formerly of the excellent Tampa Bay band, The Human Condition, he is a self-taught drummer with a distinct power and pulse to his playing. Very involved in the song-structuring and arranging, he is as creative and articulate as he is explosive on the drums. His neighbors hate him. -
Influences: Every band in the world that really cares about the music....and even some that were just in it for the chicks...(hey, they had some cool songs too ya know...cut 'em some slack!:) hehe
