The best kept secret in music
Press
"Now this is just 2 guys, mind you; yet they create a very full and textured sound which I'm not going to categorize into folk or blues...together they create a deeply melodic and thoughtful sound that at times is folkishly rebellious and at other times melancholic. Hearing this band live would be a rewarding adventure."-Bob Cooper - Portland Online Music Net
"An acoustic duo with a punch. These guys are out to seriously shred in the acoustic scene, leaving the wimpy singer/songwriter format in their dust."- John Barrios - Sleepy House Records

Bio
Quality Name Brand music is rooted in the amplified acoustic rawk tradition. Classic yet futuristic. There is punk rock rebellion fused with folk humility here - gritty and bluesy yet intelligent and modern. We hear Public Enemy. You sense The White Stripes. They perceive They Might Be Giants. I detect Simon & Garfunkel. She apprehends Lucinda Williams. This is a unique format: a whole band packed into a duo that will annilhilate your pre-conceptions about acoustic rock music. It ain't no Jack Johnson.
