The story: 

  • Will and Ryan started the project and have worked with Sacramento’s finest along the way to meeting Adam and Scott, two more life long musicians. 
  • Adam was gigging with his own band and running his promotion company when he met Will and Ryan’s group, Penwin, and took them on as a client.  After a year of progress in this relationship, he disbanded his company, joined what became the inversions, and put all of his writing and organization efforts into the new collaborative band. 
  • Scott has been a drummer since his motor skills developed and has been at the top of Sacramento’s talent pool for years. 
  • The name refers to the inversion layer created at dusk when sound refracts more during the coming night over the day’s pocket of warm air.
