Since their 1999 San Diego debut, Leigh, Sol, Darren, and Jamie have been entertaining audiences with high energy performances reminiscent of the early Kinks. Rising out of the ashes from a major label band on Interscope, Leigh Mason brings his vocal and drumming skills to the MDP table. Set up in front, Leigh sings and plays with the passion and energy of a mad scientist. Darren Spivey's guitar playing resembles a DJ, laying down thick angelic sounds over the smooth rhythme guitar of Jamie Blackburn. And last but not least, the super glue between it all "Sol". Playing fat melodic bass lines while singing harmonies with Jamie and Leigh. An essential texture of the MDP sound.
