Todd and Pope's passion for their bands and roster is contagious and beautiful. We see a great relationship ahead!"
The first video "Today" was put together by the band paying homage to the late great 70's dare devil Evel Knievel. All hand picked footage by the band to guide the song along with its statement: No regrets, never look back, and live in the moment. This guitar line driven tune sprinkled with some Travers and Thin Lizzy influence, will draw you in and make you a believer.... rock and roll ain't going away... is alive and here to kick your ass.
