Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Sadly Big Woody is no more. Steve (Phat Fingers) moved out of state a few years ago and we just never could find anyone to do the keyboards justice like he did. I really miss this band but as they say, play on. I do solo stuff (Big Woody stands alone;-) and also now play in a couple of Irish bands that are a lot of fun.
Old info.....
We put this thing together with the intention of just hanging out and trying some songs that were not played to death. You know, not the same old 3 chord stuff. Not that there is anything wrong with it, we just wanted to see how far we could push ourselves with things that we all haven't been playing for a long time. The result was that amazing and unique space in time, where the hair on your arms would stand up and we would just look at each other and say man, did the 4 us really just make that sound.....It was pretty neat.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
It's been a while but many happy moments up at the Littlebear in Evergreen Colorado.
Your musical influences
Steely Dan, Bob Segar, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, Head East, Little Feat
What equipment do you use?
Some old wash basins and a stick ;-)
Anything else?
99.5 The Mountain, in Denver CO plays My Baby Don't Love Me No More as part of their Homegrown feature. It is a great station, and does a lot to promote local musicians, so check them out (streaming on the web too)
