Local, fun, Dub-flavored Pop /Indie Rock
B Minus (2 Stars), Reviewed by Ranger Rick
Really fun, upbeat, creative, uncorrupt local band uses horns, percussion, organ, electric guitar, male vox w/ fem sing-alongs. Be sure to check out their website and the CD insert art. Admirable. Can these guys come and do WNL??
