Details:
CQD (which is in Morse code on the album cover) is The Barnacles 3rd CD release and by far the most powerful and dynamic.

Not to be confused with the sea-faring crustaceans,

The Barnacles have a distinctly American musical style blending rock and pop sensibilities with folk, alternative country, retro, and at times with other elements. The band was formed in Missouri, U.S.A. and has toured both regionally and nationally.

Playback magazine has said of their sophomore CD INLAND & OTHERWISE, "The disk, a flavorful mix of alt-country, pop, and rock, has several amazingly good songs."

The UK website IntoMusic.co.uk has said, "Songwriting is back!"

From its first inception in 2000, The Barnacles were picked to receive video-play of a live performance on the CBS affiliated program Mid-Coast Mania which airs on Channel 4 in St. Louis, Missouri. The band has thus far received airplay on over 210 radio stations in just about every state in the U.S. and has received airplay in Australia, Belgium, and Brazil with promotions on-going.

The Barnacles' Sophomore release, a full-length CD titled INLAND & OTHERWISE, was at #1 for 4 weeks on the Radio Charts for station pick-up percentages at their previous radio promotion firm Sheheshe Music Services. The promotion for The Barnacles first release WIRELESS also attained the #1 slot.

Featuring voices that blend in harmony extremely well, and an interchange of musical ideas, this group offers a diversely blended sound of original music that sticks to its roots of influence while also seeking to discover new horizons.

You may or may not find many crazy stage antics but you will encounter a very energetic and enthusiastic band containing three prolific songwriters with tunes that are memorable, and even perhaps unforgettable. You'll find yourself either singing along, dancing, tapping your toes, or maybe even - crying. You can expect to hear carefully placed two, three, and four part harmonies and a driving rhythm section from this band as well as an engaging live performance!
