ABOUT
We are a Chicago based band that plays mostly original compositions in a style that is a unique combination of rock, blues, funk, pop, and jazz. Our music is very grooving and listenable but can contain some interesting and complex chord structures, mainly influenced by jazz. The songs we play are all composed by me but improvisation withing the song structure is also essential to this group.
