Selected Discography
Shaded Red
1997
One of the few cds where every song grows on you. My sis in law was friends with the brothers and I was given a pre release of this album which on some songs I like better. You could hear there tone change in Red Revolution conveying what they had been through. I was fortunate enough to get the "when God ran" song before album was supposedly pulled. Didn't know that.

They were in an accident in '97 or '98, the van they were touring in hit black ice and rolled, the drummer was thrown out of the van and died (they were sleeping in the back) and John Robers fractured his pelvis.
They released their second album Red Revolution in 1999. Since then the record company went out of business. New copies of the cd are for sale at Amazon for $60-$80. |

I wish these guys were still around.... Their second release (about 2000?) was absolutely awesome!
