The band is: Carlos Cruz- vocals, Dave Eggers-guitar, Steve Sampson- guitar, Don Boads- Bass and Chris Torrey- drums. <\/p>\n

Their sound is rock with touch of a blues sound with pounding bass, solid drumming and dueling guitar riffs. The opening song, \u201cBack Home,\u201d lyrically is what we say when we have been away too long and how it feels good to be back home after paying our debt to society by working. Their songs are about life and relationships from experiences we all go through.

Steve, Don Chris and Dave are animated on stage. They complement other bands they open for and for their headline shows. The songs will get you moving from start to finish.
