The Cottontails

Bio:

The Cottontails are one of San Francisco's most exciting musical groups. Well versed in American musical styles from the 1920's to the 1980's, they will belt out some old gin-house blues, riff on a Charlie Parker tune, then rock out on Black Sabbath, all in a single set. The Cottontails feature the incomparable Ralph Carney on horns and lap steel, backed up by the hardest-working rhythm section in show business - Michael McIntosh on piano, Daniel Fabricant on bass, and the irrepressible Randy Odell on percussion. The best place to hear the Cottontails is at the Riptide, on Taraval next to the Pacific Ocean (check out www.riptidesf.com for the Cottontails' monthly engagement). Remember: the more you drink, the better the Cottontails will sound but even if you drink only tepid water, the Cottontails' mellifluous tones will perk up your ears and palpitate your heart with frenzied excitement. In fact, if you have even the mildest of heart conditions, please stay a safe distance from the Cottontails' music, as they do not want to be held responsible for any medical emergencies which might ensue. See you soon at a Cottontails show! "Their music is hare-raising indeed." - Col. Clary of the Long Patrol .. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 ..
