Among the eleven rocking songs from the new CD entitled, “Hole in the Road,” is a gem of a tune called “Lost and Found” that looks at our troubled environment and finds hope in the new generation. Go to our “Shop” page and click on the iTunes or cdbaby link and check tout today!

This year’s winter has been welcome relief when compared with last year’s, and we’ll be celebrating spring at O’Carroll’s Recovery Room (214 Station Plaza, Mineola) on Saturday, March 24th with great original and cover music, fabulous drinks and food, and the best company you’ll find anywhere. The party starts at 9:30, or whenever you get there! So, stop in and say hi.

We’re trying to make a change. Change isn’t always easy. Going from being a Bar Band to a (sometimes) Concert Band will be challenging. But, after our CD Release Party last week, we got a taste of what it was like to play OUR songs. ONLY our songs! And while covers are still fun, we like our songs even more. So, we’ll be looking into avenues that will allow us to perform our original rock music. And, if anyone out there has ideas to share, comment on this blog and let us know. Or, you may e-mail us at

Can’t stop thinking about the recent horrors in Japan. And one cannot imagine what they are going through. The next days may bring them a scenario no one would dare to have imagined. Our thoughts and prayers are with them.

Once upon a time an outfit called LIPA decided to build a nuclear power plant off the north shore of Long Island. That idea frightened us and we wrote a song about it called, “Don’t Turn It On.” It ended up as the third track on our first album, “Talk Is Cheap.” You can check it out by going to iTunes , and search for “Talk Is Cheap, Suburbia,” or go to CD Baby, and search for “Suburbia.”

The Shoreham Nuclear Power Plant never went online and with these recent events, I guess it was a good thing.

Later.

Vey exciting stuff! This is our newly-renovated website and Michael Wikan really out-did himself. We hope you will check here often for news and views on music and anything else that comes to mind. If you have any questions regarding the songwriting or recording process, let us know and we’ll do our best to help you out.

“Hole In the Road” contains all new songs written just for this album. The songs are about love, work, the environment, eight rough years, meeting a mystery woman, taking love or leaving it, being far away, losing your way, starting over, and it’s never too late. There’s something on this disc for everyone who’s into good, honest, rock n’ roll music.
