A three-piece working out of Edinburgh: Mike Breen on acoustic guitar and lead vocals, Gary Houston on bass and vocals, Bruce Mackay on drums.
Acoustic indie-rock-pop. Songs that have already lasted — Creedence Clearwater Revival, R.E.M., The Verve, Matchbox Twenty and similar indie, alt-rock and pop-rock material, delivered acoustic rather than electric. Powerful, emotional songs with tight, in-the-pocket grooves. Acoustic-led, room-friendly volume — not a full electric function band.
