Pumping out rock that echoes the modern sounds of My Morning Jacket, the fearless songwriting of the Beatles, and the funk grooves of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bigshot Humble performs intimate, exciting shows in clubs and colleges all over the northeast. The band has its origins as old friends and world travelers making music by beachside campfires, and the music is founded in the spirit of community and positivity. With recent success headlining the Middle East Rock Club and the Paradise Lounge in Boston, and their continued action for peaceful social change, Bigshot Humble continues on as four friends making one sound.

“In an era where marketable rock music seems to be divided into pop-punk or emo, Bigshot Humble demonstrates its prowess in intricate harmony and a never-quit rhythm section. Bigshot Humble's music manages to be sensitive, endearing, and aurally fierce. If Bigshot Humble has no future in this industry, then this industry has no future."
CE Skidmore - The Post-Star, Glens Falls NY
"Bigshot Humble is definitly one of those insert CD, push play, and listen to kind of bands." -Tres Daily
[Bigshot Humble was "found" in 1375 by Englands Lovable Royal family dog, Scruffy and supposedly created in 2008 by hipsters, ex-carnies and disco-era burnouts. Some theorists believe due to diplomatic immunity, Bigshot Humble's music was banished into the past around the year 2039 when it was discovered to have harmful after effects similar to that of tetmonium-nine. This claim was made by Sir Rendall Wallington of House Wallington in the late 1380's, which made scholars think twice about how the House Wallington was established. No data was found about this historic family except portions of forged documentation, and the belief that a letter written by Johnleton Fingerbottom in 1384 that was not to be opened until 2017 was actually a letter to the future. An excerpt stated: "Dear momma, stuck in the past. Just letting you know, and Scruffy says hi."
Due to the low level of technology and records, it is ever doubtful we will ever know if our past is true or has been corrupted by time bandits. Was this the ramblings of a madman or confessions from a man stuck in time?]

My new CD is one more track closer to being completed! This new track just finished is called "The Job" referring to a job I had during my college days at a local factory in central Pennsylvania. This factory is the largest Christmas bow manufacturer in the world. During my time there, I had a little incident and it is quite funny to look back on. Anyway, please give a listen to my new song and see if you can figure out what happened in the end. Please leave feedback if possible, this is the only way I know how to make my music more appealing to the masses. Thanks again for the friendship and support.
