An original roots rock band led by guitarist, vocalist, and award winning song writer Brian Heywood.
Specialising in edgy roots fusion music, previous work has received comments such as "... aggressive, top notch fiddling set off by periodic guitar explosions." - Tom Nelligan, Dirty Linen Magazine (USA), "Just when it seemed as if newer electric British roots bands were getting thinner on the ground - Very welcome and very good." - fROOTS Magazine (UK) and Steve Barnes Fairbridge Festival Artistic Director (Australia) - "... a rocking band - I was delighted with the audience response."
The material draws on many sources from prog rock, blues rock of the 70's to Celtic & traditional.

The music is an edgy mix of roots influenced rock, mainly original but with a few covers from the 60s & 70s mixed in.
Reviews describe the vocals as distinctive, "simultneously soulful and resonant conveying conveying a sense of genuine emotion" while the guitar work adding depth with every strum and riff adding layers of depth.
The style ranges from roots to electric blues with a bit of country and folk rock.
