Big Sandy and His Fly- Rite Boys

Here is a band that has been around for 20 years, but still relatively unknown, and that is a shame...
Big Sandy plays authentic rockabilly, rock 'n' roll, with a little western swing thrown in for good measure. Using retro instrumentation for the sparse sound of the era, the band really swings. Upright bass, Fender Telecaster, accoustic guitar and snare drums are the weapons of choice on most of their tracks. Buddy Holly would be familiar with their style, as would Eddy Cochran, Gene Vincent, Link Wray and the King himself. They fell through a time warp and dropped here from someplace in the 50's, and I am glad they came! http://www.bigsandy.net/ is where they hang out, listening to their old 45's and waxing up their vintage Telecasters. The hang out on the West Coast for the most part, but I hope to see them come to the midwest one of these days.
