"These guys are the most entertaining bunch of storytellers you'll probably ever run into" - Illinois Entertainer   Originally formed in June 1998, the group began touring the Midwest as an acoustic duo (guitar and stand-up bass) and produced "AREA," an eclectic 14-song CD. Soon after, the group expanded into a quartet, adding jazz and fusion drummer Junichiro Shimamura and mandolin player Tom Foley to bassist Matt Wiley and guitarist, singer Dustin Grove. In 2001, the foursome produced the 10-song CD "Mr. Composinator." In 2002, they produced the 14-song CD "Deformed Frog.", and in 2004 they produced the 16-song CD "Painless".  In August 2004, they completed a ten-date tour of the United States and are currently gearing up for their third tour of Japan beginning in February 2005.
