Kirk Shivell has always been an “East Coast Boy” until now.  He has arrived in California (with his band mates) with a focus and drive that exemplifies everything he does.  His path to California has everything to do with his band.

Even though Joe Craciun spent 12 years of his life in a nomadic existence with his family, he feels fortunate.  Wherever his family was, that was home; geography was a lesser factor.  Equally important was the presence of his twin brother, John, who he often describes as his “sun” around whom Joe felt he was “the earth orbiting 365 days a year.”  

Craig Schlotterback believes in a lot of things…especially destiny.  Some might even say he causes destiny.

Craig has always remembered music thriving in his home; great rock music that his parents used to share, woodwinds, pianos, brass, drums, singing and his father tapping to music.  Without it, life would be deafeningly silent.  

 

John Craciun has a love affair with music, and he is “willing to do anything for a deeper connection.”   End of story.  But the beginning of his story is much more complex.  John, and his twin brother, Joe, are the offspring of a “fiery” Colombian mother and an Italian/Romanian father. 

Even geneticists couldn’t come up with a

more beautiful combination of DNA.

Mentality; what a real man should be, apart from what he is in reality, a life founded on man's true ability, to domain, sustain and question what it is that's claimed, to step aside, step ahead.....to regain.
