Ivy Queen Diva Platinum Edition CD

Growing up on the same block in Long Island, New York, band mates Adam Busch, Eric Kufs, and Jordan Katz can't remember a time when they weren't making music together. Fifteen years later, this sentiment is still true even though the venue has changed to Southern California.

With their melodic blend of acoustic guitar, trumpet, banjo, harmonica, and cajon, the very distinct voices of Common Rotation struggle to define the modern folksong, while also demanding relevancy from the pop music medium."It's about getting the song out there-even if it is just a piece, a bit from the show the night before, some instrumental melody, a poem - just getting the music into the hands of anybody who wants it, anybody who will listen, and for as cheaply and quickly as possible", Eric muses. "It seems to keep folks interested, and it keeps me writing."That said, a fan run website has been archiving The Union Maid for more than three years, and some have also made their way to some of the band's albums and live records-others exist only in cyberspace, simply listed by the date they were created.
