Diverse LA band from the early eighties that played post-punk / power pop with influences from early jazz (Young, Strong, Silent, Unapproachable You), to country / rockabilly (Just as Much Charm), and jump blues (Kiss It) with hints of mod and new wave. Well structured songs with male and female vocals and a bit of humor.

I just came across this blog and my first thought was what Anonymous #1 said, "This band was from Carlsbad, not L.A." Thanks Anonymous #1! These guys played at my high school dances and at local surf parties. They were absolutely fantastic and easily could have been stars.
