Original work includes "short stories" of the past, revelations about the future, layering rhythm, bass lines, percussion, and smooth guitar solos into the songs, often playing seamlessly from one song to another without stopping.  The covers always include a good hearted Mike Brumm twist to them.

Here is another summary you may enjoy:

If Tom Petty and Janis Joplin had kids and those kids were to hook up with the kids of Ben Harper, Keller Williams, Willie Nelson and Bob Weir and they all went to a party to get down and have some fun and ended up jumping into a giant blender and coming out as one smooth creamy shake, you'd have this shake that makes you want to shout, stomp your feet and shake your ass a bit because it just so delicious. Then you have the Mike Brumm Shake!
