Jeff Fetterman Band does what they want to do.We follow no rules, don't play what's popular just to appease somebody else. We are an in your face raw edgy bluesy rock band that plays with nothing but what music should be played with. HEART AND SOUL!!!!!
Why this name?
We got our name after Jeff decided he was tired of playing in cover bands that always split up after 6 months,only to regroup with pretty much the same members and having to come up with another name. Also Jeff does all the writing,promotion, pays for studio, CD's etc... so there is no negotiations.
Do you play live?
We play everywhere and anywhere we can, Yes we like it but sometimes it can be grueling.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think the internet and the MP3 format is a good thing for bands. It gives the unsigned act a chance to gain more exposure and get their music out to more people, but it can also be hard as there are so many bands on the web today and it makes it that much harder to stick out of the thousands already there. It's also nice to have as a resource with out trying to get the impossible help of labels. Sooner or later I think the labels are going to cut their own throats big time. They don't really want to have anything to do with an unsigned band, but someday they will have to stoop down to our level and realize it's us the musicians who keep them in their jobs!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
More than likely
