Meet the crew
Matt Lindsay
As a young boy Matt was forced to work on the riverboats of Louisiana cleaning the decks and working the cigarette cart. During an unnatural storm he was thrown overboard and swallowed by an enormous catfish. Three days later he was spat onto the shore and found by Eloise Badeaux, a voodoo practitioner and tattooer. She raised him and taught him her voodoo practices along with tattooing. In turn he would do tattoos to help fund her voodoo shop until her unnatural departure during a ritual. He wandered the deep south with the tools Eloise had given him. Searching for a new place to practice, and eventually settling in the woods of central Florida. Some say her spirit still communicates with him today. 
Jeremy Rodgers
Jeremy was born into a family of roaming bikers. He held a tattoo machine for the first time at age 2 when his grandpa Paul looked away from the tattoo he was doing on Jeremy’s mother to light a cigarette. He did his first tattoo at the age of eight in the back of a moving 1973 ford ranchero. At age 10 he won best in show at the Boone county Chopper, Tattoo & BBQ Jam, the grand prize being a spotlight in Biker Life magazine and a gently used Winnebago. He traveled the country honing his skills in what was now his mobile tattoo shop until eventually settling in central Florida. 
Ken Deft
There isn't much known about the origin of Ken Deft. Some say he simply materialized on the streets of Pittsburgh holding a tattoo machine in one hand and a compass in the other. Others say the tattoo gods themselves delivered him to us by celestial craft. What we do know is as the spirit of tattooing personified he has traveled the world searching for the link between tattooing and the spirit realm, desperately trying to open the rift. 
Steve alfieri
Steven was born into a musical family. His father the lead trumpet player for The Mighty Mighty Bosstones was a domineering figure who forced young Steven to play horned instruments until his lips would bleed. During his recovery periods he would doodle in his books and dream of running away from the Boston ska scene. One day he did just that. It was Warp Tour 05 and his father had become increasingly frustrated with Steve's sensitive lips. In a rage his father scorned him and exiled Steve from the tour bus. He wandered the fair grounds, lips chapped, until he came upon a tent filled with people drawing. He had found the tattoo tent. The burly old man who ran the tent saw Steve and noticed his disheveled appearance and offered to rub A&D on Steve's sore lips. The rest is history....
