What's your overall gig philosopy?

Do you take requests?

Maybe. We're not a jukebox, but if there's a song you'd like us to learn for your special occasion, we'll try to honor your request.

Why this band name?

Ask any one of us "What have you been up to?" and chances are you'll hear "Well, playing in a great band is my latest obsession." After years of being obsessed with learning what we need to know to do our jobs, be good role models, and generally get to a good place in our lives, playing great music really well is truly is our newest obsession. We want it to be yours every now and then, too!

What's with the freaky face logo?

Titled "fear", this girl actually exemplified "obsession" to us. It's the pose of an obsessed person; whatever deeply-rooted mania this person has, it's clear that it's strong and all-consuming. Kinda speaks for how we feel about our group.

(Too deep? Okay, how about this... it's just a really cool picture.)
