Artist History Starting as a duet in 1995, Brian and James played a number of shows in the New Brunswick, NJ area. After very warm receptions at the Spook Handy Show, and the impending end of Brian's graduate schooling and return to Colorado, we decided to lay down these tracks as a momento of ?ill-spent? youth. Dave and Keith were kind enough to lend their considerable talents to the recording process, filling out the music with a versatile rhythmic core. Where are you Brian?

Group Members Brian Ferinden (lyrics, music, guitar and vocals), James Creeden (music, guitar and vocals), Dave Arnold (bass), and Keith Whiting (percussives)
