"I'm really pleased with the outcome of this CD. I feel it's the best songwriting I've done and the band did a great job of putting down the music. I think the band can be proud that they were a part of it," Tom Clawson said. The sound will remind listeners of some legends: Eric Clapton, Jonny Lang, and Stevie Ray Vaughan; that's good company to keep. "Our number one rule of thumb is to be eclectic and diverse. I want you to be able to put our CD in your car or stereo and just cruise, with nothing sounding the same, so you don't get bored," explained Clawson.
