“The difference between. blues music and CarMage is people lose their blues when they see CarMage. Many start feeling guilty and start to lose their blues around CarMage and Robinson. The Blues songs mostly play different genres of CarMage to feel better. CarMage is not only timeless ballads, with the darkest form of blues-reserved for not only the earned chosen ones-  
Ones that have been to hell,  but have had multiple journeys there- allowing the. to take advantage of musician friends who are readily available.”- Robert Johnson—after seeing CarMage playing in the Muscle Shoals graveyard. Lighting cancelled the short show.

Delayed Reaction is a project featuring Jay Hill (Bass, Keys, Drums, vocals, Kitchen Sink)and Joe Abrams (Guitar, Vocals).  Jay and Joe started collaborating in 2012 experimenting with various electronic beats and instrumentation on original songs they took turns composing.

“I saw both of them get struck by lighting indoors. They both shrugged and laughed it off”- good thing Mustangs are fiberglass!”-W Freed
