We play for the shear enjoyment of playing and for the love of music in hopes that others will enjoy our music too. Maybe we can bring something to the world through our expression.LISTEN TO SAMPLES
Transition
Our second CD was written with many people in mind. People from our family, some friends and those from our past. It was fun making it because we talked about alot of people many good times. LISTEN TO SAMPLES
Macktown
The MackTown CD goes deep into the psyche of soul, classic jazz, and some real cool rhythm and blues. Written from a laid back time, 1 Down put this down with each individual of the group adding their own touch. LISTEN TO SAMPLES
New Season
