Jen was born August 23 in NJ. Music had never been just 1 level. It always seemed to be a
guiding, comforting force running through her veins. She remembers a creative energy always flowing and never settling.
Influenced by an eclectic list, Loggins and Messina, Stevie Ray, Neil Young, The Rolling Stones, Jethro Tull, Beastie Boys, Donna Summer, Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Funk, Punk, Rock, and Rap. Knowing how powerful a song could be at such an early age, Jen grew up with her three sisters remembering harmonizing, changing lyrics, teaching herself to sing listening to the radio and cassettes.
Writing started around age 11 when she started putting her feelings on paper. This grew into a comfortably natural form of expression and helped her get through the trials and humps of teenage existence. At 16 Jen's sister took her to see a friends band in Pt. Pleasant where they needed help with GNR lyrics. Jen didn't hesitate to get right up there and start singing and soon after was asked to join them. At this point she knew that this was where she felt most like herself.
Eventually Jen started relating her personal poetry and lyrics to music. She continued to write as a way to stay sane through changing relationships and musical experiences. This evolved into Rock, Funk, Metal, and Dance projects.
Jen learned to play the guitar so her songs could finally come together. In her mind that was the only way to project her ideas the way the were meant to be heard. Jen's song writing comes from her heart, soul, and from places unexplainable to even her.
The experience, when it happens, is indescribable and emotional. The lyrics are life living, observing, truthful, honest, and possitively spinning the written word to the music it is meant to lay upon.
Jen feels so fortunate to have the love and support of her family and loyal friends. She hopes to continue writing until she is rocking in her chair on the front porch.

Wendy was born on March 4th in Red Bank, NJ She has been playing the bass guitar for only 5 years but has been musically influenced throught her lifetime.
Being the daughter of a Puerto Rican mother and baby boomer American father she has been blessed with a mix of influences. As a young child she would listen to anything from Tito Puente,Santana, Steppenwolf and Grand Funk Railroad. Her first record she bought on her own was Blondie's "Parallel Lines". From that point she went out of control. With influences from Run DMC to the Police toThe Beatles. She would always carry around a tape recorder and play DJ for her friends.
Music was her way to feel free. She has dabbled with the keyboards and played the flute through junior high school. The late 80's and early 90's moved her influences to the New York club scene. Bass pumpin beats were always in her blood. In the 90's she switched over to mainstream rock and roll and modern rock, with modern day influences like Nirvana, Ben Folds Five and STP.
As a joke she picked up the bass at a Halloween Party and busted out with Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust" and that was it. With assistance from a fellow friend and bass player she was able to fullfill a lifelong dream to be a part of someting special and joined forces with a couple great girls that she grew up with.

Born into a musical family on March 16, Daniele has always been obsessed with percussion intruments. She started out playing drums on an empty guitar case to songs by Heart and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. It was then she dreamed of becoming a part of something that really impacted people and gave her a chance to express herself in ways that not everyone was capable of.
Daniele grew up with many musical influences. Music around the house was mostly Funk or anything with a "moving groove". Taught by their uncle, her father plays guitar and is also involved in projects. Her great grandmother was a drummer as well.
Spending time with her dad while he practiced, Daniele would always have her eyes on the drummer. One day she just sat down and began to play.
Her favorite drummers include Bill Ward of Black Sabbath, Neil Peart of Rush, and Stewart Copeland of the Police.
Daniele currently plays a 6 piece Gretch Catalina Maple kit with Zildjian cymbals.
