Sure, bands form and break up all the time.  But once and a while there are those bands that when they were around they were only a blip on the radar….maybe they didn’t promote or play enough shows, but the band was really good spectacular and a special thing and made some great music and recordings.

The band members have gone their respective ways.  Travis Lee Wiggins is still continuing to play and record with his solo project Essex Chanel (www.essexchanel.com), as well as with his other two current bands, The Personal FX (www.thepersonalfx.com) and Dolphins Swimming (www.dolphinsswimmingforever.com). Mike Rice is starting a new band (for the present time you can visit (www.myspace.com/mikeandrice).  Luke Krause has been playing drums for City at Large  (www.myspace.com/cityatlargemusic).

The Salts would like to thank all their fans for all their support during the years.
