play lists from California to New York, while Music supervisors in Hollywood
retained the sexual taunt “Beautiful” and the love struggling ballad “Bringing
Home The Rain” for movie soundtrack libraries. “Most Wanted” is an eclectic
menu of songs garnishing an array of influences from Classic American
Country to Vintage English Rock.
The follow up to “Most Wanted” was “Tattoo Girls”. Released on September 11,
2001. The singles "In My Life", "Crazy Little Woman" and "Tattoo Girls" made
regional playlists and became college rock radio staples. With national radio
play and regional distribution, the song “Tattoo Girls” quickly became a theme
for a new generation of inking and body piercing young people. “Tattoo Girls” is
loaded with purposeful good time rock and roll songs made to play at any club
and get you out of your seat. The tragedy of 9/11/01 led to a slower start for
the CD, but the songs eventually became highly downloaded at all the digital
offerings.
