   About the 77s
The 77s (a.k.a. the Ypsi 77s) is an original Ypsilanti/AnnArbor, Michigan rock band fronted by former legendary rock personality KK Dirty Money. The 77s fuse foot-stomping swampy blues anthems with raw twangy baritone surf-guitar and smear it over a thick chunk of garage punk to create a catchy-yet-unique type of "garage-a-billy blooze" that is performed with a supercharged energy. The 77s are the the bastard sons of pirates and Vikings. The 77s formal connections are sprawling as the band members also currently perform in the following bands: KK Dirty Money - the 77s, Devil Elvis, Sunday Painters, Las Drogas; Alex King - the 77s, Mazinga, Scott Morgan's Powertrane, the AssButts, and has even sessioned for Mitch Rider; Casey Jones - the 77s, Las Drogas, Deadringer; Joe Jones - the 77s, the F.A.S., Deadringer More MP3's and other fun stuff at: http://kkipp.com/77s.html
