They have been jamming together again since 1996 and have appeared in clubs throughout the New York City area.

Could music become an alternate career?

“It’s an alternate passion. Whenever you do things that creative, they feed other things that are creative”

“I’m not that great as singer, but René is really good. I’m working on it, though”
