They both have a body of songwriting and music project experience behind them in the independent scene for over a decade.

JD has released 2 solo albums, which he toured and has co-written with several talented local songwriters. 

Troy Stoilkovski was in the band No Exit, toured with artist Tanya Gordon and formed hard rock outfit E320.  He started the production music label TREAD Music Library in between projects.

Artisan Kin "All The Creatures Are Stirring" is a mix of anthemic, melodic alt-rock pop and is scheduled for release in April 2012. The AK band now comprises of David Williamson on Drums and Ray Kostiainen on Bass.
