Tubby, A.K.A. John Kelly Patterson, Tub, and Tubman

Although he says that he will eat anything that does not eat him first, Tubby reminds folks that his nicknames are due to his first instrument, the washtub bass, and not his figure. Tubby sings and plays both a powerful and a slap style of upright bass and can also gracefully bow the bass. Tubby is also a "country philospher" and gets folks laughing with his stories. When he is not performing or working in the family’s construction company, he is hunting and fishing.

Mala Patterson, Mala = Malibu without the boo

Mala Patterson plays many instruments, including the guitar, fiddle, wooden spoons, frailing banjo, mandolin, scrub board and piano, and sings. She writes songs and has won songwriting contests. She also has written articles for many publications and has written and illustrated two children’s books. Mala teaches music and dance lessons, models, acts, paints, and works in the family’s business. She possesses a Bachlor of Arts degree from Judson College.

They also showcase clog, buck, and flatfoot dance. Tubby, an Indian American, is an award-winning buck-dancer and flat-footer; and Mala is a state Buck Dance champion.

  We enjoyed seeing you guys play again, we missed the homecoming last year. I think Tubby's new hair style is just fine. If it's good enough for Chuck Liddel, it's good enough for The Tubman. Good luck in Nashville.
