incorporated elements of punk, rock, folk and funk into a unique and unpredictable soundscape.They debuted with a live album
on the independent Triple X label, recorded at Hollywood's Roxy venue, which received widespread critical acclaim, despite a

hidden melodies, subtle nuances and enigmatic qualities. « hide |
