For a time the band was a worship band for Vineyard Church,[3] and this was reflected in their music in many ways. Their music was said to have an "acoustic slant" and a strong emotional pull, helped along by female vocalist Jamie Eichler.[3] Overall their sound was similar to that of Over the Rhine or Innocence Mission.

In early 1996 they toured with the Lost Dogs.[3]
