“Earnestness in music is beyond important. Music is a medium that connects us all back together, reminding us that we have always been one and the same. We may as well celebrate it.”
—Ian Axel
Our Show:
A mix of theatrical whimsy and heartfelt soul from two very odd
(and handsome) guys looking to connect through song. There will be
a piano. Prepare to smile (Ian & Chad).
Our art is inspired by:
The Nightmare Before Christmas, the Beatles, coconuts,
aliens, and the overall lack of positivity in the world. We'd like
to change that (Ian & Chad).
Earliest musical memory at the keyboard:
Being three years old at my grandma's house, figuring out how to
play "Tequila." Pee-Wee Herman was one of my childhood heroes
(Ian).
