2Me's uniqe blend of alt-folk, blues, and rock, is sure to put a smile on your face and a wiggle in your hips.
From their humble beginnings in the coffee shops of Sacramento, CA, 2Me has built a name for themselves as a band that can charm a candlelit audience just as easily as they can rock a bar full of weekend drinkers.
It began somewhere around 1998 with Christopher Twomey and his acoustic guitar. In 2003 he picked up Nathan Bisig on electric guitar, Reid Foster on drums, and Conan The Bass Player. Over the next three years the foursome recorded two albums, toured regionally, and then nationally. After touring out to NYC and back in summer ’06, Nathan and Conan decided it was time for a change of pace, so they bade their farewells and called it quits.
Christopher and Reid, having grown more impassioned every day by the music and the struggle, decided it was time to sink or swim. They made the big leap, quitting their jobs and moving into the tour mobile to play music full time.
With a circus of musicians sitting in with them in different parts of the country on mandolin, horns, keys, kazoos, washboards, and harps, you never know exactly what you’re going to get from 2Me when they roll through, but one thing is always the same: it’ll put a smile on your face and a wiggle in your hips, and there’s a really good chance they will want to do a shot of Jack with you in between sets.
