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? 

The band is comprised of working musicians and PK worked in live events. On March 13, 2020 K said "that was the day the music died." All tours and gigs were cancelled and in a few short months many live event companies succumbed to the lack of revenue.

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

AS PK says, " If the house is on fire, get water. If that doesn't work, get marshmallows." We adapted and that's why "You're As Good As Anyone (Jordan's Song)" was created.

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?

Making the single "Y.A.G.A.A" kept our minds busy, as we focused on figuring out how to record remotely. Working with Eddie Kramer, kept our spirits up and collecting celebrity cameos for the video was interesting. It took 8 months to record, 6 studios were used and 5 key changes were recorded as we changed it with every singer approached. Thank gawd, awe found Deacon.

As things are reopening & restrictions are lifting have you booked any new gigs? Tours? Etc? If your region is still under restriction, how are dealing with the Covid third wave?

No gigs as yet but, some members of the band work with US artists and are starting to do gigs in the US until Canada opens up. We're also recording the debut album and Eric Alper is helping us doing our PR, so y'all will hear about it.

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

"Do everything you can, before you can't." PK
