“The music itself is an amazing blend of no holds barred Rhythm and Blues, classic Saloon Jazz with a dash of Classic Rock. The musicianship of all the players involved is equally as impressive. The rhythm groove (Bass/Drums) is as thick as a brick. Top to bottom this unit is rock solid... Kudos goes out to the slamming harp and guitar by Vaughn and company, but the most impressive thing is the impressive vocal persona and sizzling harp performances from Mr. Vaughn himself. His harmonica skills are to die for and his vocal delivery is spot on for the genre. No doubt these guys are a total riot to check out live around Southern Oregon and beyond...The music is nitty-gritty, rock solid, heavy and consistent.”

— Cyrus Rhodes, CEO, President, Indie Music Digest

“Nominated "CD of the Year" "A real barnburner."”
