Possum is billed as high-performance-acoustic-hippie-rocknroll. The diverse backgrounds of the ever evolving line-up fills each show with heavy musical improvisation and tight jams.
With a focus on cover songs from J.J. Cale, Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic, and Traditional Blues, Possum delivers a different show, full of energy and surprise every time they play.
Comprised of a rotating line-up of veteran Birmingham Musicians, all of whom have accomplished resumes of their own, Possum includes members of the critically acclaimed bands Oteil & The Peacemakers and Gravy, along with other excellent, long time Birmingham Musicians.
The Possum Family of Musicians is what makes this band special, and the eclectic mix of talent is sure to bring a crowd to its feet and put a smile on your face. Come experience Possum for yourself, itll definitely scratch your itch.
The Possum Trio is yet another unique offering from the Possum Family. Featuring a distinct focus on Traditional Music and Instrumentation, this Band is truly unique to the Birmingham area. The Possum Trio revolves around the Up-Right Bass of Jay Johnson, a Stripped Down Drum/Percussionist, and Vocals, Acoustic Guitar, Banjo, and Mandolin. The Song Selection is both Traditional Americana and Contemporary, with a little something for everyone.
