The two friends Collin Charles and Jerrod Black are trying to find in music what evaded them during their time in the NFL: Appreciation, respect and maybe even love. They made the switch from the tough and relentless business of American football to the world of Californian beach raves, Gabba drummers and psychedelic vibes, which they record in Collins’ childhood room. But who knows, maybe being in the music business is just as difficult as it is out on the field. They are starting all over again, but this time they want to see it through to the end.
