World domination.
What has been the highlight of your career so far, and
why?
The release of our debut album that precipitated:
a) A live album release show last November where we
played to an appreciative and enthusiastic packed crowd.
b) Getting a number of positive reviews of our recorded
music shortly after release.
And what’s the moment you want to forget?
Probably, when at a family oriented festival gig, I
accidentally referred to Joe (lead guitar player) as Dick (bass player). Someone else
said don’t you know the people in the band? I answered yes, I was just thinking
about Dick and had Dick on the brain. There ensued an awkward silence amongst
band members and the crowd.
If you had to pick just one of your songs to
represent your music, what would it be and why?
That is tough given our eclectic style
Folk rock – Fiddlehead
Rootsy blues rock – Wash The Dishes
Folk/East Coast – Angel in the Snow
Progressive – Imperfection and/or Icestorm
Where can we listen to it?
All those tunes can be streamed at Bandcamp, with an
