They're from Athens. Many of the members still living here. As a band -- I
don't believe they are an active entity but with Athens bands you never know.
I don't know how many releases but I can find out. Two current members are
active with other projects -- Todd McBride has an album out called Sketchy on
a European label (which currently escapes me) and Rob Veal is currently
recording for a release on Kelly Keneipp's new label here in Athens. In the
fairly recent past, the band has backed Marlee Macleod from time to time when
she's played Athens (her latest CD features their song "Just Like Geronimo")
but it's probably been at least a year or so. Todd had a pretty successful
tour of Europe (as did DS earlier) so there could be some things happening
over there that I'm not aware of. Todd's current band that he's playing out
with is House of Gamblers (no other DS members in it) but they sound great.
I think Rob's CD will be solo -- he's an amazing songwriter. I saw him do a
solo night which was incredible (incidentally -- his wife won the autographed
Lucinda Williams guitar that the label or someone was giving away). I've
also seen Rob play with a local band called Little Oconee but don't know if
that's a continuing project. This town has too many one-off bands but lots
of talent.
