Description:
"I like to tell people that we play Organic Music. Which is any music played using only your body to play it. No pre-recording, no over-dubbing, no computer beats, and no effects...except for a little reverb. Musical influences range from everything and anything. Everything is influential, even the stuff that you hate; because it influences you to never ever replicate it. We are an original band that plays original music. At any given show we play, 95% of the show is original music, with a few bits and pieces of some classic artists interwoven into the show. We play our own renditions from a selection of songs ranging from Bill Withers, John Prine, Albert King, Dave, Black Crowes, Jack Johnson, et cetera. We are not like any of those artists, though we share some style and techniques with each of them. In fact, our style could be compared with many different genres of music including Jam, Jazz, Blues, Rock, Folk, Soul, Funk, et cetera. Most people have difficulty trying to desribe our sound, mostly because we are a little like everything, but not really like anything. We are the original Genre Good, Organic Music, preservative free since 2002." Mathew Haeffel

In addition to their captivating high energy performances, They can also put on dynamic and engaging acoustic shows...fitting as comfortably into an intimate coffeehouse as they do in a loud rock venue. They can adapt and play a wide array of covers if the situation calls for it, though they are not a cover band and would rather not. They try to support original music whenever possible, and hope that you will as well.


Band Members:
Mathew Haeffel - Lead Guitar/Vocals

Mathew Haeffel has been playing and writing since he was 12. Mathew has a deverse knowledge and respect for the legendary proformers that made Classic R&B, Blues, Jazz, and Rock what it is today. However, he is quick to site all forms of music as influencial. In his own words, "All music is influential even the stuff you hate because it influences you to never replicate it". That being said he has made great strides in the music industry playing his brand of original music. His sound can be characterized by well crafted lyrics and high energy amplified acoustic guitar.

Cody "C-Note" Calderon - Drums/Backing Vocals

Cody "C-Note" Calderon has been playing the drums since he was little. Having made a name for himself in the music industry in bands such as Gypsy Kitchen and Chinese Fingertrap, Cody brings a truly unique style and industry experience which compliments Mathew Haeffel's musical intentions accordingly. Much like Mathew Haeffel, Cody also brings a great knowledge of the greats found in the Jazz, Blues, Rock, and Soul words. His playing style has elements of Jazz and Latin rhythms, which allows him to utilize the various instruments that make up his drum kit. Self penned as the "What the F#%K?", Cody's kit is made up of Conga drums, high hats, a base drum, a snare drum, and any other items he can attach on a given night. One of the truly unique elements of Cody's personal style is that he plays both standing up and sitting down. He also brings high level backing vocals that compliment Mathew Haeffel's voice accordingly.
