  Gabe on bass guitar Derrick on drums,Emily  playing all guitar and keys.Totally out of this world musical sounds. 

raised in a small town in the northern part of BC Canada.  i started playing the piano at the age of 16/17 and ever since then i have been doing taking my piano knowledge and implying it into today's music.    i feel music is the best way to show emotion and the best way to bring people together. live by the one rule in life " never say you cant"  thats the best advice i can give other than " never give up"   

"Yo solo estoy de paso, la música está para quedarse."

"I'm just passing through, music is here to stay."
