When I hear the soaring lead guitar and haunting vocals on the first track of the debut album by Straydaway, I am reminded of the essence of time and limitations it imposes on us all. In the chorus of the song "Time is the Taker" a dying father tells his son that "Time is the taker boy / she's the thief of your soul / she'll show you no mercy son and she's gone before you know."

David Menser, the lead vocal and rhythm guitar front man of the classic sounding rock group sings of the importance of family and living for more than just yourself. The music rings true with harmony and angst from a life of hard knocks and lessons learned. David, has distilled those experiences aided by seasoned musicians and songwriters into a ten song cd of original songs. Straydaway, from Kentucky, consist of David Menser, Lead Vocals/Guitar, Troy Thomas, Drums, Sean O'Brien, Bass, Mike Crooke, Lead Guitar/Vocals, & Mike Deal, Keyboard. The sound of Straydaway transcends any single music style but is reminiscent of the Eagles. The 1st artist signed to the newly formed Sunlite Records, a division of Sunlite Enterprises, Inc. Straydway's album was recorded at Sunlite Music & Studios in Owensboro, Kentucky on ProTools HD. It is being released to College Radio, throughout the Southeastern United States and is available worldwide at CD Baby.
