Their live show will impress even the indie kid with skinny jeans on."ERIK ~ Talent Buyer "Thanks for the show this band always brings a great performance to the club. Music is what they enjoy and it shows.

The home, which was rented, was once the sole recording studio of original members Mark Godwin (guitars) and Adam Patterson (guitar, vocals), as well as the inspiration for the band's name, being on Stokeswood Avenue. Though the band now records at Atlanta studio Stonehenge Recording, the band's first EP, Cellar Door was completed at the home. The band had an incredible amount of recording equipment and intruments stored at the home, but it was all miraculously saved by a knowledgeable fireman. "One of the firemen was a musician," says Godwin. "He covered up the piano and guitars with tarps." The fire was started in "the least of rock star ways," says Godwin. An emergency light caught on fire, igniting the top floor of the house. Being down below the blaze, Godwin was completely unaware until a friendly neighbor came to the door. "This litttle old lady knocked on the door and said, "You know your house is on fire," says Godwin. "I took a garden hose upstairs, but the entire place was engulfed in flames." Though the equipment was saved from water and fire damage on the ground floor, virtually all of the band members' possessions have been completely destroyed, save a mysterious voodoo doll, a St. Rita statue and a closet of clothes. "We wrote this song 'Lucy's Lullaby,'" says Godwin, explaining the band's theory. "We believe there is a ghost of a girl in the closet up there. There was no damage and the shirts were completely clean."
