Better to work on pieces in the morning
than to blow off practice all damn day.

What I really like about the players in Ikarus (and the Velvet Nomads) is the feeling of "we'll try anything." It's eclectic without an agenda to be so.

What's crazy is our schedules and getting together to rehearse is not so easy.

What's cool is that we don't make a huge deal of anything.

No loud drums, thundering bass and other soul sucking elements.

There's probably little or no commercial potential either. We won't be appearing at your local bar, hammering out covers and trying to sound relevant or rockin' out. That's a young man's game and I have nothing left for it.

All I ask is that the guitar be represented fairly, creatively and the landscape open to new ideas.
