Imagine a jam session with Ennio Morricone and The Ventures...imagine Clint Eastwood, dirty hat and guns drawn, high-plains-drifting on a surfboard...
The Big Guns have carved a distinctive niche in the area music scene by presenting an all-instrumental blend of ‘60s-era surf, twang and the catchy, haunting melodies produced for the famous Spaghetti Western movie series. The music featurs guitar instumentals that float cleverly between the realms of Surf (The Ventures), Spaghetti Western movie themes (Ennio Morricone), and Twang (Duane Eddy, Link Wray). Very cool, and "timelessly retro."
The Big Guns with the legendary Steve Fromholz at the Texas Musician's Museum. "I'm no longer a legend," says Steve. "At my age, I'm more of a saga."
Hey guys...ya'll put on a great show! I look forward to seeing and hearing y'all at Hawaiian Falls again soon. Thank you for The Big Guns tank top! I'm wearing it proudly. Keep rockin'!
Good one! What are you doing at 3:49 a.m. writing puns? At that time in the morning, just remember this: Two peanuts were walking in a tough neighborhood and one of them was a-salted.
I didn't know you guys played at Hawiian Falls. My son's 8th B-day is July 26. Hmmm something to think about. I just have to figure witch park to go to. Garland is way closer.
