The last time they were here was more than a year ago. This year, they return with a new CD and material. WCYY radio listeners already got a preview. If you've liked what you've heard, you will certainly like the rest of the disc, the second full-length CD produced by the band. We definitely mix a lot of stuff from the 70's with what's happening today.
