Chaotic freeform jazz and experimental. Sometimes known as "Sick City Trio" or "Sick City Four Minus One" or "Minus Two" depending on shows where two or three members would play. Live performances as implied were totally freeform with Dan and Heather sometimes performing multiple instruments while Chris played guitar and Bart played drums. Several live sets and recording sessions were put out on handmade CD-Rs with Dan's own label Adept Recordings. Had a long-standing friendship with Gubbey Records, collaborating on the second split in their series.
Dan and Heather would relocate to Indianapolis in 2016, effectively ending the band.
