    Artist History
    John lives in North Hollywood, CA. Joe, who used to be his roommate, moved south to Oceanside, CA and, while gigging, met Bryan. All three kept playing in separate projects and eventually thought that a 120 mile gap wasn't enough of an obstacle to keep them from playing together. So, they put a few songs and a five mics together and this is what they got. If you like human feel, these guys are for you. How it is they aren't on a label is beyond us.
