This one’s got it all: big, Skagarack-size keyboards, a soaring, clean vocalist in Patrick Julian who is similar to Max Bacon, the guy from Hybrid Ice or Steve Overland of FM and very handsome production courtesy of Kim Fowley (who produced The Runaways, Steel Breeze and others).

This Cincinnati, USA band is easily one of the best indie AOR CDs, “Let Me Find My Way” is similar to Surrender, Rescue, The Koo, Shelter, The Cauze. The production and vocals are clean and polished, the songs are right out of an AOR dream.
