Can you talk about how this band first came together? How did you come up with your band name? Was it difficult to settle on one name that described your music?
We got the name from a ‘90’s B-movie we all like liked. It has a great soundtrack and features some of our favorite bands like Guitarwolf and The Oblivians.
We came together by meeting each other in the scene, we all played in different bands.
You recently released your third album, “Skydogs.” Can you talk about what the inspiration was for these songs? Is there a running them throughout this collection or do the songs stand alone well?
It’s definitely cohesive as an album, but they do stand alone well I think.

The songs are shorter, more to the point and the production is better.
When you aren’t performing, working in the studio, what do you like to do for fun? How do you two unwind from it all?
Reading, running, gaming, cooking, eating, playing guitar, …
What do you hope is the message of your music? What do you hope people continue to take away from your songs?
Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
