ancient melodies. The bands live performances journey between soft
sensual acoustic sounds and melody-driven rhythmic tribal rock.

band, as Music Connection says, "stirs a primitive, primal
passion."

D-Squared
Take a baritone folksinger with an intriguing sense of rhythm
and rhyme...Pair him with a faux harper whose tunes shimmer in haiku-like

Charles guitar and vocals, to create a new sound on the face of
the singer / songwriter scene."
