Vocalist/Guitarist Cris Cowan dramatically croons lyrics of abstraction, restlessness, and desperation against a backdrop of stunning guitar interplay and taut rhythms.

Hardwood floors and whitewashed brick walls establish pure minimalism, while cushioned benches, low tables and backless stools extend for the length of the central room. A second room, with low slung couches and oversized slate fire boxes gets rhythmic support from local DJs. Asian tapas (e.g., duck vindaloo and macadamia tuna) complement cutting-edge martinis and mojitos." - from Citysearch, by Walaika Haskins
