I am blown away Ivan - you and your brothers music is fabulous! Most likely you've heard this before but you could be (are?) the new Everly Brothers! Seriously - so good! Are you playing live a bunch? Do you have an agent? Just wow -

Thanks Gio!!! People have compared us to the Everlys and we actually do a bunch of Everly Brothers songs. It’s funny cause my brother is the taller blond and I’m the shorter brunette; ironically the same look. However, I’ve got the higher voice. I love their harmony and their music and they’re one of my favorites. They influenced The Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel...my top two favorite groups.
We do play live as much as we can and since we just moved to Philadelphia I’m planning on booking as many gigs as possible. As of now, no agent, but I really do hope to have a career in music, it’s my favorite thing to do and ideally I’d do it all day everyday. I already kind of do.

You both have what it takes - it's as clear as a bell. I wish you the very best and if you have a website or a way of following you I'd like to know. :thumbsup:

The wear on my Hofner is almost exponential. Does anyone else experience that?

I’ve gotta say, those videos really brought a smile (or 7) to my face. Tasteful bass playing, awesome vocals, great harmonies, great songs. Those are some of my favourites. I’m a fan. Please don’t stop. Please stay together, do the world a favour and share your gifts. I’ll be listening.

Oh, and love the bass too.

You’re too kind:D; thank you so much! This is the reason I love playing because it makes people smile. It makes me smile too. Music makes the world smile!

And Happy T-day to you Ivan and all visiting! A turkey could qualify for inclusion as today is a er... distressing day for them! (sorry :bag:) On the flip side I guess it's a relief for those who were not 'chosen'... :)

Happy Thanksgiving! Had the day to myself as my beautiful lab assistant/wife had to work ( oh, the woes of a social worker) so I entertained myself with perusing internet (bass) porn and as usual, drug some over here to show you like a cat with a chewed up dead bird. Here.
