Our style of music is a heavier rock/melodic metal sort of thing. I'm not entirely sure what to classify ourselves as. Calling us a "rock band" would be a safe guess. :)   We've been a band officially for about a year and a half.
 
We have performed around Northwest Iowa; Just places like Sioux Center, Sioux City, Sioux Falls, Orange City, Hawarden, Hull, etc.
"And yet, the rock plays on, delivering a sweet serenade mingled with painful despair. The music leaves in its wake a crushing, sinking feeling. And yet, if you listen carefully, you can hear the soft lull of a hope pushed aside, but never gone. All of your closest comforts may flee and your best of friends can turn their hearts aside, and yet there will still be one who will always care about what happens to you. In life there are ups and there are downs. Anyone you may ask can attest to that. But when you do ask, listen carefully to what they are truly saying. Even in the darkest of times and in the most painful of hours, there is a twinkle of hope, a second chance for love, a hand reaching out to help you back up.
 
And this is what 'And Yet' is all about. Realization that even though stories may seem to bring finales, new chapters of our lives will still begin the next day, the next week, the next month. No matter how deep of a hole we have fallen into, there is always a rope long enough to pull us out. We may feel as though the story is revolving around us, and yet something whispers "there is something more to life," something more to this bleeding, broken world that we live in. Something that tells us to press on when we feel like lying down on the tracks. Something that tells us "You are worth something more." All we need to do is read between the lines."
