   About Rusty Chain

The Rusty Chain Band is not an actively performing band. It is a great side project and something I still enjoy doing when time allows. In mid 2005 I was able to pull together some good friends and fellow musicians to perform a number of tunes I had written. We cut these tracks at the PUS Cavern Studios here in Sacramento in one afternoon.

I am currently playing with the Blues Farm Band full time now and have been for the past 2+ years.

If you happen to like these tunes and want to get the full CD, just email me and I'll tell you how.

An interesting genealogy/chronology of the Rusty Chain Band:
About 7 or 8 years ago I was playing in a band with Rick Rapp called the Blues Revelators. Our singer abruptly left the band and left us hanging with several gigs lined up. A frantic search for a singer lead me to Scott Rich, who was able to slide right in and finish out our remaining schedule. Scott also turned out to be a talented drummer as well. Afterwards, Scott left to form his own band, Boiler Room.

About a year later, with the Blues Revelators now defunct, I ran into Scott at a Boiler Room gig. I sat in with him that night and as it turned out, he was seeking a guitar player to replace the departing Grant Urias. I joined Scott in Boiler Room along with Lightning Sam Passanissi on guitar.

Eventually Boiler Room ran it's course and Lightning Sam and I formed the Chain-Lightning Band pulling in Ripley Howe and Patrick Collins (the rhythm section from Blues Farm) to back us. Scott sat in frequently but eventually this band too ran it's course.

I ended up playing with Sacramento party band, TightSqueeze for the next 2 years until I got a call from Patrick asking me to fill in some gigs with Blues Farm. That was 2 years ago and I just never left.

The tracks on this CD were recorded in early 2005. I had these tunes kicking around for some time and wanted to get them down on disc. So I booked some studio time, called these guys up and we recorded these tracks live in the studio on a Saturday afternoon.
