The Caulfields were an alternative rock band from Delaware which recorded two albums for A&M Records in the 1990s. The group was led by singer/songwriter John Faye and also included Mike Simpson on guitar, Sam Musumeci on bass, and Scott Kohlmorgen on drums (later replaced by Ritchie Rubini). Their first album was 1995's Whirlgig. The album's initial single was "Devil's Diary", which received limited radio play as well as exposure on MTV. The group never achieved significant commercial success and split shortly after the release of L, their second album, in 1997. Faye would go on to release an album with The John Faye Power Trip in 1999. After one album, that band changed their name to Ike and released three more albums. As these new bands also featured a constantly evolving lineup, all seven records released under The Caulfields, John Faye Power Trip, or IKE can be viewed as showcases for Faye's songwriting and can be recognized as a single body of work. Since 2006, the band has reunited, albeit irregularly, for a handful of shows in Delaware and Philadelphia. There are no known plans for a permanent reunion, and due to Faye's commitments to IKE and other projects, a new release seems unlikely.
