    This eclectic and very talented new group takes seriously the need to present non-Christians with quality art. Sounding like nothing you've heard in the Christian market, the band brings to mind groups as varied as Radiohead and Over the Rhine. A beautiful piano interlude and earthy dueling vocals (a la Sarah Masen) are, on occasion, interrupted by the freedom of a rock guitar, none of which are given to a specific genre, but rather, great music. While some of the aforementioned vocals take on some nearly Point of Grace-like harmonies, and some of the instrumentation may be best suited for the coffeehouse, it is the adventurous guitar and overall versatility that makes this band so notable.
