Ever since they have been playing and writing with all sorts of people, + instruments. Sooner or later they started booking shows, and picked up a bassist named Andy Mahoney. Mahoney was with the band for quite some time, he later moved to South Carolina. After which they had been trying out several bassists + guitarists, but none fit the slot. Then they realized, ‘Hey you know we’ve jammed with Jesse on bass, so let’s try it.” - He was a great fit for the band. After being in the band awhile he told them about a rockin’ guitarist named Josh Ripley. They got together and practiced, suddenly all the pieces fit.
