guitar was called, "Stick and Stones" after the Suzi<br />
Quatro song. We were horrible, but my God did we<br />
have fun...LOL<br />
always evolving and we are uber excited to start<br />
doing some original showcases in 2017!<br />
I<br />
met April when I was playing with Twisted Logic. I<br />
just love her so much, and think her voice is just<br />
amazing. Chris Trapuzzano just joined us recently<br />
on bass and we couldn't be happier he is a groove<br />
monster. Mike is a great drummer and close<br />
friend. We met back in Jan. 2014 and he was our<br />
drummer for over year into <strong>2016</strong>. Right now, Mike<br />
is recording with us and filling in on live gigs until<br />
we work in and secure a new permanent drummer.<br />
We have many awesome prospects lined up,<br />
so I am excited to see who we will end up with.<br />
Right now, the main focus is recording originals.<br />
We still want to continue playing some cover<br />
shows as well, however we will definitely be looking<br />
to showcase our originals 2017. To be honest, in<br />
the next 3 to 5 years, I don't know. God willing, I will<br />
still be playing guitar, recording and living the<br />
dream. I try not to think too much about the future,<br />
I think peace and happiness can only be found in<br />
the present. I try to live by that. Of course, like<br />
everyone else, I am a work in progress... (LOL)<br />
The "high" for me live is just letting go of<br />
all inhibitions and becoming one with the music. I<br />
love the energy of playing music for a live audience.<br />
It is such a soul cleansing experience to share<br />
in the power of music. It is like we are all one, the<br />
audience, the band, everyone. We all can just close<br />
our eyes let our spirits fly and just be, together as<br />
one. You just can't get any greater "high" to me.<br />
Well, April and I<br />
have our place in Plant City on 20 acres. So,<br />
besides having the studio there, we also take care<br />
of 5 "Off the Track" Thoroughbred horses. They are<br />
living out the rest of their lives in the luxury of green<br />
pastures. We just love them, but they do require a<br />
bit of work, and that is good for the soul. Horses<br />
are such majestic animals. April and I are such<br />
animal lovers and advocates. In fact, for the past 2<br />
Yes,<br />
definitely! We held off on our bookings for November<br />
and December so that we can record our originals<br />
at my studio in Plant City!!! We are so excited<br />
to finally be recording the band and getting our own<br />
music out there. We will be releasing a single soon<br />
that we have been playing live called, "We the<br />
People"... It is a song that I think a lot of us can<br />
relate to given the times we are in. I can't wait for<br />
everyone to hear the studio track! It has been<br />
going over great live, and we are so grateful for<br />
that. We are so excited! We are looking to release<br />
our CD in February/March 2017. Primal Shift is<br />
