Under the backdrop of upbeat rock and groove, their songs center on the themes of love, overcoming and finding your own habitat. Singer-songwriter Rachel McCullough, with guitarist Neal Blumberg, bassist Danny Walker, and drummer Jay B. Wade take the audience on a high-rev ride with powerful "wickedly sweet" vocals, slamm'n beats, and rich, textured guitar.
