Less than five years ago, this group of six veteran performers came together to have a little fun and make a little noise. Guitarist Mike Deflumere and (at the time) bassist John Saxe started calling in old friends and new to audition for this new project. In time, we were joined by drummer Brian Gorsch, singer Shari Gage, bassist Tripp Swart (John moving over to keyboards), and triple threat Rob Norris on harmonica, guitar and vocals. It wasn't long before we found out Shari could write lyrics, Mike and Tripp could come up with tunes, and everyone else had creative ideas for putting it all together. After a few hundred shows in clubs, fests, private events, benefits and concert dates, we had enough new original material to take to the studio, and the results are these eight songs.
