Influences
Country/Rock: Eagles, Poco, Dan Fogelberg, JD Souther, Linda Ronstadt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, America, Firefall, Zack Brown, Van Morrison, Lucinda Williams, Rick Nelson, Suzy Boguss, Son Volt, Highway 101 - you get the idea. Maybe even throw in some originals of that type for extra flair! Looking for a band with vision to do great songs in a unique way with a distinctive style. Let's do music that people will want to hear, the songs our generation fell in love to… some softer rock to cater to the retired crowd - maybe some sing along? (Have you ever heard "Daydream Believer" and not sung along?) Face it, many people in their 60s, 70s and 80s don’t want to fast dance at 8 and 9 o’clock at night. Let’s tone it down with some classy music. Let's be a great band not a loud band.
