The band formed via Craigslist when frontman Geoff Hunker moved to Nashville. Today, the band’s chart success here on OurStage includes three Top 10 finishes and a 2010 Best Of ranking. Their song “Light The Night” is currently featured as the theme song for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s annual Light The Night walk.
