Lineup: Scott Rainwater, Josh Birmingham, Doyle Williams and Patrick Yoe. Influences: Kings of Leon, Rage Against the Machine, 311, Led Zeppelin, Death Cab for Cutie, OutKast and more.

This alternative rock four-piece has been busily recording at local Shade Tree Studios. Rainwater, Birmingham and Yoe got their start in Macon as founding members of alternative soul group The Revival. With that band they shared the stage with such noteworthy acts as Little Richard, Morris Day and the Time, Oteil and the Peacemakers, Randall Bramblett and more. The three met Williams when he was playing guitar with Demun Joes at the 40 Watt. Williams has his share of impressive credits as a guitarist as well, having played with the likes of Warren Haynes, Dickey Betts, Tim Brooks and Chris Hicks (Marshall Tucker). Look out for the album release and a tour to follow later this year.
