Bio

This Rock Band was born out of a group of individuals with great ambition and a desire to share their passion for music with fellow rock 'n roll fans. This band is no stranger to the Kingston music scene - Scott Burns and Mike Hogan, two of its founding members, have been playing together for 20+ years. When Kate Rombough joined the band in 2013, they experienced a sonic evolution, diversifying their musical repertoire to include a variety of male and female fronted acts. Losing founding member Shawn O'Reilly in 2019 was a devastating blow and anything but easy, but they’ve managed to stay strong and to carry on the band and the legacy he helped create. Being through so much together has only brought them closer, and with the addition of Evan Veenstra early in January of 2020, they have reinvented themselves once again and are bigger and better than ever.
