Fowl Play is a piece party band playing all your favorite dance tunes from Carolina beach music to classic and contemporary rock, funk, r&b, you name it. All the favorite tunes that your group will love to dance to !
Specializing in Jimmy Buffett style outings, or parties, where tropical is the theme, and the attitudes are laid-back, and happy-go-lucky. All songs presented here are my own originals, and though I am proud of each and every one of them, I know that most people want to hear the songs they're already familiar with by popular artists. But these songs will give you an accurate idea of what I sound and play like in a live setting when doing those more familiar tunes. All songs were recorded several years ago, and even though I've had to let the band go because of moving to another area, I can still use the piano player heard on these recordings if conditions are right. I also have access to an excellent lead guitar player as well.

Defined by a unique style of music and reaching a wide audience, the edison project is a pop heavy, groove rock band from Augusta, GA that has made their mark on the southeast music scene. In 2005 & 2006 the edison project was voted Best Rock Band in Augusta by the readers of The Augusta Magazine and earned the opening slot at the hugely successful Drive For Show, Rock Fore! Dough concert Masters Week, where the band began the show featuring Collective Soul and Hootie & the Blowfish. The band sites its influences from a wide range of artists, including Wilco, Ryan Adams, Coldplay, Third Eye Blind, Weezer, Jimmy Eat World, and a multitude of jazz artists. The huge talent in edison shines forth in their progressive anthems and melodic ballads. Most react in amazement when hearing the Edison project for the first time, wondering how these young music lovers can have such a cultivated and coaxing sound, manipulating their instruments and vocals at will and having an almost spiritual effect on the most critical of listeners. Micah Swenson is bass guitar and backup vocals. Zach Swenson is percussion and background vocals. Rino Mendoza is lead guitar, violinist, pianist and backup vocals. David Firmin is lead vocals and rhythm guitar.
