0- 2prestonS Mike was the first of the two brothers to pick up a guitar. It was the mid-sixties and sporting a Beatles haircut he began to wail on his red and black Sunburst, Harmony electric. A year or two later Den began playing bass. By the turn of the decade the brothers began to jam and record alot. In 1987 the brothers began recording a joint project. The album ended up being a solo release (TOYS FROM HELL) by Den but it has three of Mike's songs (not including the acoustic jam they did together) in the bonus tracks. The album received airplay in the United States (college and independent stations) and overseas. The Cape Tapes (basement tapes) were recorded in 1995. They began on Cape Cod where Mike lives and were finished later back in Lansing, Michigan where Den lives. Click here to view (0) comments or add your own.

Sam left the group in early 2003 in pursuit of a career as a solo artist. He spent the next 3 years traveling around Michigan performing his original material and writing about his experiences. His songwriting is strong, personal, and honest, influenced by artists ranging from Nick Drake and Elliott Smith to Leanord Cohen and Bob Dylan.
