Their version of Cissy Strut did it for me. Wow, I wish I had a 10th or their talent at their age, god bless the lads. I'm glad to see that not all of todays kids are out wasting time with too much video gaming or hanging out in the streets causing trouble. It is really nice knowing that the future gen has some kind of drive and creativity.
If they keep up, they could be the next Weezer

That said I'm nervous for the "players" band mentality that poor vocals are "acceptable". Because IMHO they really need a vocalist who can hang on that level.

They're lucky to have a three piece given their age and influences. Finding a singer their age who can hang with their chops is a very tall order.
From what I've seen, I'm impressed with everything (except their cover of Birdland, which is a tune I've worked pretty hard to get into shape before myself). They deserve to go far because they've got something special. |

In this tune they change their instruments .... the drummer plays the steel drums , the bassist play the drums , and the guitarist take the bass !!
Good versality and musicianship !!
