About

We're a mature group of musicians (age 50+) playing all the songs that we've always wanted to play, but never got to. There are tons of great songs from the 1960s and 70s that people love and can dance to, but most covers band seem to play the same old songs. We're avoiding those, and playing songs off our bucket lists.

We're not afraid to break out the acoustic guitars (or a cello or a trumpet, etc.), if that's what's on the original record. And if the next song calls for two distorted electrics, then that's what we'll play. There was a wonderful, eclectic mix of music on the radio back in the 60s and early 70s - and that's what we're aiming for. (Including the harmonies...)

Influences

The Beatles, Beach Boys, Badfinger, The Byrds, Monkees, Tommy James, Eagles, Neil Diamond - any melodic rock from the 60's & 70s, etc.
