Layout Created at KillerKiwi.net

Swamp Cabbage presents truly American music in that the songs paint images of the Southern US areas that inspired them. - the Northeast Florida palmetto thickets and the Louisiana gator water. Founded by North Florida native Walter Parks, the Swamp Cabbage fatback electric ragtime sound is a raunchy foot-stompin' tip of the hat to Tom Waits, Billy Gibbons and Dr John. Swamp Cabbage is new Southern music - different from, yet in keeping with, the North Mississippi All Stars and Mofro.

This year band leader Walter Parks attained national popularity by hot wiring the PA systems in every US minor league baseball park. He did so in order to play Swamp Cabbage's version of "Frankenstein" on the tenor banjo just as the national anthem singer would take to the microphone. Thousands of copies of Swamp Cabbage's Honk have sold henceforth. Drummer Jagoda is what the New York underground calls a "Bayou Boy". He makes the lion's share of his living on wee hour poaching runs in the Bronx Zoo. Jagoda etherizes snakes, turtles and night frogs with his Bar-Mitzvah style rhumba beats - luring the reptiles to their slaughter to meet the demands of New York's designer fashion market. Mathew Lee Lindsey, on red bass from from Chickamauga, GA, is a direct descendant of General Robert E. Lee's personal battlefield trumpeteer Olieus Witherspoon Lindsey III. Matt is freshly returned from touring deep south debutante balls in support of his first release "Civil War Hymns for Her". This dance sensation is performed completely on solo unplugged electric solid body bass.

Hey Guys, I played with you at the incredibly dissapointing VT Rally in Rutland.

I produce for a radio show here in Burlington , VT you impressed me enough to play your stuff on the radio. If you'd like to see it in the set list got to my top freinds and click on the JIm Murphy Zoo profile. The song list is in the blog every week.

I added a new song to the player. It’s called “Frantic Freedom”.

It’s a live studio groove rock jam that’s funky as hell! Think of Jimi Hendrix’s “Foxey Lady” on steroids, and you’ll have a good idea of what’s in store for you when you hear the song. There’s also a companion live video for the song. And in the video I DO MY UPSIDE-DOWN GUITAR PLAYING THING. Ya gotta see it!!

**IF YOU DIG IT, YOU CAN BUY THE LIVE JAM TRACK FROM THE VID FROM MY SNOCAP STORE!

Also, I added TWO MORE videos. One is called “a little bit of my history”, in which I talk about some of the things that shaped me as a guitar player. The last new vid is called “Rocket Dreams”, a straight-up rock jam!

Check out all three videos!

…enjoy!
