He has also recorded on Columbia, Bell and Atlantic Records and had the opportunity to work with the late Ahmet Ertegun.

The band has been playing together for four years and have honed their distinctive blend of influences into a powerful musical force captivating audiences wherever they go.
These guys love to play and it shows.
They are capable of soaring, joyful forays into funk and jazz, with dark penetrating blues and galloping country, rhythmic reggae and always a surprise or two waiting to spring at you at the most unexpected time. "If we don't do something we've never done, we're not having a good night".
These guys are what music is all about, five people who recognize in each other a kindred musical spirit, who lets them form and express the musical ideas they all bring to the stage.

Try 'em, You'll like 'em.
