Their infectious rhythmic undertow is layered with rock guitar, dizzying fiddle motifs, and topped by Derina’s powerful voice. These transplanted east-coasters have earned a reputation as a party-band, leaving many an audience out-of-breath and hollering from the dance floor! • The band has proven to be a crowd-pleaser wherever they go. 2014 has seen the group travel across the country, entertaining crowds at pubs and festivals from Alberta to Newfoundland, where they took the main stage of George Street Festival in St. John's this past summer. Most recently, they shared the stage with Newfoundland YouTube sensation Donnie Dumphy (a comedian/novelty act most prominently featured on the Rick Mercer Report on CBC). • The band continues to build on a growing fan base by promoting their self-titled debut album (released in 2013). The record has garnered radio airplay in multiple regions in Canada (CKUA in Edmonton; K-Rock and Radio Newfoundland in St. John's, NL; CBC, Canada-wide). Work on their second album has already begun, due out by summer of 2015.
