El sonido de estos chicos encuentra sus raíces en la tradición country y folk, con matices que hacen del suyo un sonido personalísimo: tempos lentos y letárgicos, lánguidas guitarras, y la evocativa, preciosa voz de Margo Timmins. "Cuando empezamos, nuestro principal objetivo no era durar mucho como grupo, sino que lo hiciera la musica", afirma el compositor y guitarrista Michael Timmins. "Teníamos la esperanza de que nuestra sinceridad se contemplara a través de las canciones".
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

Introduction on Verse
If [G] you were the [Em] woman and [C] I was the [D] man Would I [G] send you yellow [Em] roses, Would I [C] dare to kiss your [D7] hand? In the [Em] morning would I ca[Am]ress you As the [C] wind caresses the [D7] sand, If [C] you were the [Am] woman and [D] I was the [G] man?
If [G] I was the [Em] heart and [C] you were the [D] head Would you [G] think me very [Em] foolish If one [C] day I decided to [D7] shed These [Em] walls that sur[Am]round me Just to [C] see where these feelings [D7] led, If [C] I was the [Am] heart and [D] you were the [G] head?
[Am7] [Bm] [Cm] [Bm] [Am7] [Bm] [Am] [G]
If [G] I was the [Em] woman and [C] you were the [D] man Would I [G] laugh if you [Em] came to me With your [C] heart in your [D7] hand And said, I [Em] offer you this [Am] freely And will [C] give you all that I [D7] can Because [C] you are the [Am] woman And [D] I am the [G] man?
