How would you describe yourselves?  
A 50s & 60s rockingly fun group that relives the oldies, but goodies, from the 50s & 60s!

Many moments with our 'former' ex-lead singer (who stole money from us! And he had a sinus problem!).

If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why? 
Secret Agent Man - mainly because we're kinda mysterious, secretive, and mostly men (except for our female singer, of course!).

Where can we listen to it?


Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say about your band/music that I forgot to ask? 
Yes, we're just humbled Canadians that love music and wish to share that passion with as many people as possible! Cheers!   : )
