Short bio
singer/guitarist Jimmy Fountalas, drummer Blake Jiracek , lead guitarist Patrick Senorski, and bassist Anthony Settecase
Since forming in 2009, the band has played some of Chicago’s most renowned stages, blasting out finely crafted bursts of crowd-pleasing rock n’ roll.

What have been the biggest challenges in your music career?
Fuck, every single step has been a challenge. But the biggest challenge is finding the right people to play with.
How many songs or albums have you released to date?
I have released a lot of EP’s over the years but our latest release “Barely Holding On” is my first full scale project
Can you tell us a few things about your latest release?
It has some of my most favorite song’s that I have ever written. From by heavy rock roots in the song Barely Holding on while also being able to record the song Words that Kill with members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. I think it really rocks and there is a void that needs to be filled. I think it rocks the fuck out of the house.
Any plans for new music or upcoming projects we should know about?
We are currently shooting our second video for the song Overboard and then after that producing a video for the song For You. We also will be hitting the road in June on a Southeast tour that includes stops in Nashville, St. Louis, and Indianapolis along with some huge Chicago Summer Festivals.
