Artist History A solo project formed in late 1999 during some down time by Johnny Scott, materialized as one of the souths newest up and coming bands. Rounding out the band with fellow members Torie Talbert (bass guitar), Don Stacy (lead & rhythm guitars), Roger Eaker (Hammond, Keys), Art Bordeaux (slide, rhythm & lead guitars), and additional studio musicians Chris Emerson (mandolin) and Chris Hartis (backing vocals), Scott realized they had good songs and great musicianship. The Band felt a live situation would be great...Shows were booked and from there it has taken several turns in which additional songs were written and plans for a summer cd are in the works...
