Artist Profile
Alex’s EP Inside was a creative mix of new and old. The overall sound was warm with an analog feel that makes each song inviting and engaging. He was able to utilize great guitar tones to capture the sound of the early 90”s, while his songwriting reflects our current times. What a great way to lose...

Lime is an everything-but-the-kitchen-sink track - not surprising, from a band that likes to throw twists and turns into its music and build fat full layers along the way. At last headcount, there are 6 full-time members of the band, but it sounds more like 60 by the end of the song.

It’s becoming difficult to choose what show to attend here in Napa anymore. Didn’t used to be that way. I remember fifteen years ago being excited that a Rolling Stones tribute was scheduled to play at Silos. Our music scene was terribly bland. Save for a few traveling past favorites that would occasionally roll through...
