Can you rip off your own sound? I can't believe Dana Colley is trying to sound like Dana Colley, what gall! A true artist makes their instrument resonate with a voice as identifiable as a sonic fingerprint. As central as Mark Sandman was to Morphine, he did not play alone. I for one am glad to hear the music go on, or maybe Colley and Conway should have sealed themselves in Sandman's tomb...

it is the same singer as Bourbon princess...i think ortiz came to boston on sandman's suggestion.. . B o u r b o n also had original morphine drummer jerome dupree...

This is the sound I've tuned my Morphine based channel Radio Chillage towards.
|

Sorry, its just too close -- almost like they're ripping off their sound. C'mon, bass, sax, and drums? I'd like them better if they weren't trying to carbon-coby what was a great, unique sound -- the first time around.

Ha ha, I came to this page to see if they were made up of some of the Morphine guys but you guys beat me to it.
|

Exactly. Very Morphine-esq u e . I wonder why Morphine is not one of the listed "Similar Artists."
|
||
I want to love them for picking up where Morphine left off... but I can't... Morphine's haunting sound and the untimely death of Mark Sandman make it legendary and although this band is comprised of phenomenal musicians I just don't feel that haunt in my soul...

At first I thought this was a long lost Morphine song. Made me miss the band.

I bought this albulm and the whole damn thing is good. The Dana Colley's sax plus the deep smoky vocals from Ortiz: fantastic. The lyrics are wry and darkly surreptitiou s . Complimentin g the whole sound I think is Dersch's jazzy top work and deep tom bottom.. A new incarnation of low-rock at it's finest!

This is one smooth sound. Love the Morphine sound. Hope they make it to North Carolina..
|

Yes, it is the same singer I believe. Monique is her name and the gentlemen playing the sax is the same guy fromMorphine . There from the Boston area and they play often in Cambridge Mass. But I've also seen on their myspace page that they been doing quite a bit of touring in the Northeast in general.

Who is this Band? Where can I find them I want to see them live???? Nancy & Chip
