A
One Man Garage Band on a Mission…..To keep the half-century
old Music of Jimmy Reed alive and in the Street….
We are a One
Man Jimmy Reed Tribute Band. We don't
know, but maybe we are the only one that exists. And we have no
real idea as to whether or not anyone really cares. What started,
as a personal rehab project, however, has become a public event.
We're out of the garage and sharing our interpretation of Jimmy's
music with the public.
We believe
in history and
respect the role that
music has played in our lives. And we believe that Jimmy Reed's
music wrote an important chapter in the roots of rock and
roll.
… In music writer Pete Welding's
words, the lasting appeal of
Jimmy Reed's music stems from the fact that "it was honest
and simple...and it drew its strength from the authenticity and
clarity of Reed's observations about the everyday affairs of ordinary
people.” |
