With the current pandemic, the state of the music and touring industry has dramatically changed. Where were you when everything was brought to a halt? 

In the middle of releasing our CD, "The Way Things Used To Be".

How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?

All shows cancelled, had to focus on internet exposure, and building up a fan base through social media.

What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home? How are you supporting your mental health through all of this?

Working on new song material mostly, daily exercise and trying not to drive the family crazy.

How are dealing with the Covid second wave?

Pretty much the same as above, just trying to keep the spirit of our music alive so people will remember us when the Covid wave is over.

Favourite Starlite Room Moment?

Eric Alper has just introduced us to the Starlite Room, so we're just looking forward to hearing your shows, and the artists you present.

Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?

Enjoy your rock music responsibly, stay safe and we hope to be out touring and come your way whenever the worlds allows us.
