Artist description We pretty much play whatever feels good. We're serious about what we do, but we do it because it's fun. And don't put too much stock in the 'Alternative Country' label. It's simply the choice which didn't fit the least.

Music Style Country, thrash techno, rock, jazz, post rock, pop, polka, whatever.

Musical Influences Johnny Cash, Tortoise, Godspeed You Black Emperor, Jay Garnett

Artist History We all first met at our first gig in a late night pizza bar. Two months later, we recorded our first, self-titled CD after midnight in an abandoned warehouse. After a year of gigging, we toured Canada coast to coast this summer to support our second disc, 'Tumblewire'.
