I heard they headed for Ireland to busk after burning out on heavy metal. Metal's loss, acoustica's gain!! They are in heavy rotation on WXRT, our local AAA/Alternative/progressive rock station.

They do a fantastic rendition of "Stairway to Heaven".

Very, very cool. A breath of fresh air on acoustic guitar.
