Hey Brad, I'm just now listening to the CD samples on Amazon, really good stuff. Congrats on the release, that must be a huge sense of accomplishment 8) . Interesting photo on the CD cover, is there some history with the location?


Thanks so much! No particular "story" behind that photo other than it's a picture of a quaint little motel in Flagstaff, AZ -- we like Flagstaff. :-)


On a national tour heading to the west coast I can remember drinking with a native American at a bar (can't remember the name - micro-brews) in Flagstaff = a really cool conversation and a great time.

The next morning I went for a bicycle ride. I was really short of breath. I then realized the altitude of Flagstaff: 7,000 feet (2,121 m) elevation...hence the lite headiness and the buzz the night before. Gorgeous geography.

A very engaging enjoyable album.

I've listened to it twice now. Very tasty.

I like the flow of the website, and that you can hear the album while you surf on other pages. Overall, I like what i hear.

Mike: not our best gig performance-wise, as Nick was getting shocked each time he stepped up to the mic not to mention that the venue called for us to play a bit more quietly than I like. We still had fun, though! There will be other, better shows. :-)

Hi Brad. Love that sound. Sort of intense without becoming too heavy.

Do I hear a heavy YardBirds influence? Very sophisticated sound and the vocal harmonies are excellent. Well, developed and mature.

Nice job.


Thanks for the compliment and yes, there is most definitely a Yardbirds inspiration in there for sure. Good ear! :-)

Sounds good

Sadly Amazon doesn't allow those who don't live in the states buy mp3s. The site informed me that after it had me download the program to download mp3s from Amazon.com :?

I do believe iTunes is a bit more "internationally friendly" so you may want to try that route. That said, if you have continued difficulties drop me a line offline and I can get you hooked up -- I do have a few physical copies of the disc available as well and we can handle it the old-fashioned way. Certainly want to make sure anyone who wants a copy is able to get one!
