Experimental Pilot

This acoustic duo featuring brothers Robert and Stephen Vessenmeyer (founders of the legendary local rock band MEN FROM EARTH) mixes rootsy, rugged harmonies with classic rock inspired songwriting to create their own brand of down home "REDNECK SOUL". The music, steeped in Americana is a cross between Neil Young's rootsy folk rock and sparkled with some British T. Rex blues. They write intimate acoustic songs that flow in an informal manner in the style of Dylan's The Band. On stage with an easygoing comraderie recalls the brotherly harmonies of the Everly Brothers, with acoustic guitars, and hooks that stick in your head, intense lyrics and songs with a sense of joy from a tortured place.

Retro-Rural-Spiritual.
