Artist History We started out as a soul band in 1967, then in 1969 we heard the Band and went off in that direction for a while. We drifted apart until 1993 although we all kept up with music through raising kids and what not. Now the kids are gone, we got plenty of cash for equipment and name brand gear, so we write songs and try to find ways to save the world with our songs.
