Can't seem to find anything about this band. Recorded at Baby Monster Studios in New York, with contact information listed as NY, NY, I'm guessing they were based out of NY. The cover suggest something a little darker than it's contents. At time s, Mary Domhan's vocals remind me of Belinda Carlisle of The Go-Go's. A few of the songs have male lead vocals. "Birds" really minds me of an X song, just not as good or as rocking. They lean more towards college/alternative rock than pop.
