Love for life interweaved with a radiant sadness of a wandering soul is echoed in the music of this newly formed eclectic rock band. During a year they managed to get a stable audience, which does not manage to get bored until another piece of wonderful art comes up. Their music can be called gentle and intellectual.
Artists' unique approaches, traditional rock sound alternated by bright melancholy of saxophone sound seem to ideally reflect the energetic philosophy of Jack Kerouac's On the Road. Touching deepest strings of one’s soul they make it imbued with a beauty and sadness of a magic existence called life. - SunChild
