ABOUT

I want to start a world class, mixed gender rock band capable of getting a huge following, breaking into the main stream, delivering hit song after hit song, and maybe slightly reinventing rock ‘n’ roll if we’re really really good.

The vision is to create a fusion between rock ‘n’ roll and EDM where it’s still clearly rock but you could easily drop the tracks into a DJ set and nobody would blink.

I'm also down just to jam!
