LINER LOU
Early in 2002, sequestered in the intimate atmosphere of Stella Studios, Jerry Adolphe and Tim Hearsey set off on a musical journey known as the birth of "Jath" music! Inspired by the work and playing of Gaye Delorme, they created a CD unlike anything in their prior repertoire. Like it or not this happened!
