Биография
In less than a year the band has released a full length debut record, been positively reviewed by several blogs, licensed by Quiksilver, received radio airplay, charted Top 5 on Twitter, and received thousands of views on Youtube. They have several requests already to peform at CMJ in NYC, and In December they will be featured artist of the month and perform live at the John Varvatos CBGBs showroo…m in NYC.
Pattillo's love for the upbeat raw recordings of Howlin' Wolf and the garage rock of The Sonics inspired him to go back to his roots and record a true to life thrashing blues record. Pattiillo is a producer with a credit list from Alanis Morrissette to the The Hold Steady, The Black Crowes to the Beastie Boys and last year produced the Reni Lane debut for Universal Motown including the song “Place For Us” which was featured on several TV shows, remixed by a handful of electronic producers, and favorited on viral sites like Hype Machine and Twitter. Wirth has toured extensively in Europe and the US with various bands such as acclaimed blues artist Will Scott, and the Warner Bros act Sweet Lizard Illtet.
