Why do you do what you do?
We all come from diverse musical backgrounds but all share a love for rock-n-roll and blues music. Since Chief has joined the band we have expanded our repertoire to include original songs that he has written.
What are you working on?
We are working towards becoming a band that plays only originals in order to establish our own sound, relying less and less on cover tunes.
What’s next?
Possibly an all original CD as our original song catalogue expands and of course more live shows!

APRIL 22ND @ KELLY O'BRIEN'S PUB IN EUREKA. OPENING FOR US WILL BE: SLAP SHOE FLY. SHOW STARTS AT 8 p.m.
Who's that?
SLAP SHOE FLY is a hillbilly duo that plays high energy, acoustic, original songs. Johnny Callahan is from Siskiyou County and Jason is originally from West Virginia. They just released their first CD titled: Decades In the Grain. They are just coming off a tour in Nashville, TN. in support of their CD.
Website? MySpace page? Anything like that?
Nothing like that.
Anything else you want to add?
Two of the band members (Chief and Birdman) also have side projects that they are currently involved with. Chief is a singer/songwriter from Cleveland who moved to California six months ago in an attempt to expand his solo career. Many of his songs explore the current state of our world as well as the many personal trials and tribulations of his life. Chief is currently working on a CD project that should be out in the fall 2006.
Birdman has an alter-ego personality known as AFRO-YT. AFRO-YT is a rap artist who enjoys making people laugh with his sarcastic wit and intrinsic ability to rhyme. He currently has released two CD singles entitled; un-FRO-gettable and A Goofus One.
The Siskiyou County Homewreckers live a remote mountain community along side the Salmon River. No one in this community is on the grid. We rely totally on alternative sources of energy (solar/water). We practice in a poleshed on the second tier that is only accessible by a 20 foot ladder relying on a small propane heater for warmth. Our shows are high-energy, with music geared towards those who like to dance and have a good time.

Ok, hate to do this, but it's gotta be done:
It's been over a month now and there's been no new posts here. Time to roll up this blog and shut 'er down. No use in clogging up cyberspace with a dead blog.
