It would be wrong to call us a throw back. But we are all heavily influenced from a time when music was musical. An influence from the 60's, 70's, and 80's rock
We are just a few musicians who always had serious musical aspirations ,alas, real life got in the way. And then a few years ago, we were presented with an opportunity to get together, write, and record... One of the common bonds between us all is the disappointment in the current music scene on the radio and worldwide. What ever happened when you actually had to know how to play an instrument to be a musician in a band? What ever happened to the time when good bands also had good hooks in their songs? We know that type of music is still out there. It just seems that you hardly hear it anymore.

Story behind the song
(Dave was the primary writer.. So this is his story) I would say that this song had its origins in a dream. A dream of longing from my room on the 7th floor of the Anglo-Swiss Hotel overlooking downtown Cairo...I'd just returned from a desert oasis (literally) and fell asleep exhausted. I began to dream of the girl I left behind many months earlier...a true story...
Lyrics
I am in the desert, traveling Over burning, barren sand The dunes are shifting with every step I take This is not the trip I had planned…. Everything is naked beneath the sun My lips are cracked and dry I’m looking for, I’m looking for your oasis Sanctuary ‘tween the earth and the sky…. Take me to your oasis Relieve my fevered soul… Cool me down in your healing waters Shelter me, make me whole…. This bitter wind is merciless, conspiratorial, But I will reach you my destination…. Is that you I see, beckoning to me? Or are you just a cruel hallucination? The desert sun has it’s own redemption The sands will move and swallow foolish men I’m looking for, I’m looking for your oasis And it’s not, no, no, it’s not…it’s not the trip I had planned … CHORUS… Take me, take me, take me, take me…. etc. CHORUS…out….
