Honestly? Not a bad band name. Put a “The” in front of it and it’s got a nice 90s twee ring to it

I’m constantly experimenting with covering a classic-era Motown song (Motown 1963-1971 is my absolute favorite music), but every time I look up the chords to a song I think I could pull off I’m reminded that these songs are way out of my league
