Chris
McDermott
Not
a Blues Man but coming from the Blues.
Not Jazz
but approached with the same relentless discipline.
Not diluted
Laid bare in dedication to personal truth
Acoustic Arch top Guitar- played with the classic aggressive/romanticism of Gypsy music and often melting into Funk lava.
Electric Guitar- played without all that crap adulterating the signal.
Just a Guitar, a cable, and a tube amp (occasionally a wah-wah pedal)
Fingers and a voice.
SONGS.SONGS.SONGS.SONGS.SONGS.
The point is the Songs.
The Songs dictate the music.
Chris writes them and sings them. And produces the recordings.
The live shows are about
great players
creating that feedback loop of
energy
between audience and musicians
With every note
always in quest
of that warm fuzzy place
that makes you feel alive
and inside the moment.
So at the end of the night
We hope to leave you a little retuned,
A little cured of the
external cacophony
Your membership to the
Human experience renewed.
If it made you feel good, then we know we did our job
