Rene' Berlin's first band, Agent 86 immediately caught the attention of CBS records, however Rene' developed polyps and had to go on complete voice rest for an extended time. By the time that her voice had completely recovered, the band had broken up. Many years later, she felt that she didn't want some of these songs to go unheard and decided to give it a second try. This time she teamed up with Doug Khazzam, who not only brought his fine bass skills, as well as a different musical sensibility (Elvis Costello being a major influence) to the project. In the recording studio, drummer Kevin Bregande finished off the trio. However, filling his shoes was a difficult proposition until facebook reconnected Rene' with her very first drummer Thomas Slattery, whose musical tastes (his favorite drummer being John Bonham) fit the bill perfectly. Together, their music covers a wide array of styles. The songs on the E.P. cover blues tinged rock, rockabilly (the title track) and melodic ballads, featuring Rene' on the cello. Many influences can be heard, from Beatles to Led Zeppelin as well as contemporary bands such as the Foo Fighters and Royal Blood, with a little classical thrown in the mix. The band is presently rehearsing to do shows in New York City as well as to head back in to the studio to record.
