Musicians Chris Phillips and Michael Cerda met in 2018 in New York City. Phillips played guitar on Cerda's "Yellow House Orchestra" record, and the two have been co-writing their own stuff ever since. What a hat tip to the 1980s era of songwriting, Phillips and Cerda are pumping out crafty songs you don't hear much of these days. Its' a little Donny, a little Roxy, and a little Daryl, but written and recorded today. The 2023 release of "Back and Forth" and "On and On (One and Done)" feature Phillips on guitars, keys and production, Cerda on bass and vocals, Brian Dunne on drums and Andrew Gould on saxaphone.
