ok so regarding their origins, steve was a big ol drug dealer (might've been just pot) in oc and its not that far of a reach to get your demo to the right people when you're selling large quantities of contraband in so cal. i learned this from the vh1 behind the music iirc.

Bummer, I wanted to see em. Would have guessed the guitarist shopped his demo around then teamed with Harwell at the label's suggestion. Maybe I'll hear the album one of these days.
