Their high energy performances are driven by the unique and progressive approach of each player: Imaginative melodies with graceful ambiance skillfully crafted on the violin, tireless beats both dynamic and soulful confidently assembled on the drums, driving low end with finesse and intention forged on the bass guitar, and unique approach to playing the acoustic guitar blending fast picking bluegrass runs with strength of blues and rock to evoke an emotional contrast between melancholy and hopeful.
