That was a great set at The Silver Dollar, bombastic driving guitars, rhythmic shimmer, a gritty epic sound combined with atmospheric interludes, which then blasts-off like a rock firestorm. A high-octane sound that's bigger than justice.
That was a great set at Sneaky Dee's. Rock bombast, crashing, burning, and simmering, taking you for a heart-pounding ride. Walls of guitars, tense heated vocals, straddling fierce power and occasionally yielding to a softer side. The band is passionate, blasting you to another place with their hard-hitting sound. A thunderous fast-paced rock climax.

That was a scorching set at Sneaky Dees. Raw energy, fearless intensity, and a sound that's both innovative and explosive. Ontop of that, the encore is proof that not only is the Ten Kens star rising, but also blazing forward.
Excellent review of The Boat show in this issue of Now Magazine 'They've discovered a dynamic that results in sweaty and swirling up-tempo songs and should win them a vote or three as best new band'
Hope Things were smashing last night. We're getting excited to come down and play with you dudes. Approximately 33 days, 9 hours and 52 minutes till set time.
