It takes more than one or two musicians to make the songs they perform sound full enough, and sound "right". All of the musicians are "monsters" on their instruments.

The band is lively. At any Dreamsicles performance, they generate their own fun. Their modus operandi is to start off the evening hot - no warm-up is required!
