MP3 Josh Williamson Band - A Working Man's Breakfast
11 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Hard Rock, BLUES: Rockin'' Blues
Details:
Also known as "JWB" - the Josh Williamson Band is a rock power-trio with a huge sound and a reputation for great live performances. Rooted in the blues but with funk and metal flavorings, JWB delivers its riff-laced rock set with the hard precision of an orchestra, the explosive energy of a punk rock band, and the deeper soul of a delta bluesman. With a nod to the past, theirs is a sound that propels forward, with a feeling everyone understands but have never heard expressed this way.
Ever since Josh Williamson sneaked into a blues jam to play guitar at age 15 (and was kicked out after two songs for being obviously too young) people have been shaking heads and dropping jaws at his smooth, attacking style. At the age of 16, he won a nation-wide contest sponsored by Fender Guitars, and performed with Kenny Wayne Shepherd live at the House of Blues in Los Angeles. At the age of 17, with his first band - the Josh Williamson Blues Band - he opened for Joe Louis Walker in front of 5,000 people in San Jose, California.
But Josh Williamson is more than a guitar, and the Josh Williamson Band is more than a guitar player. Since coming to Seattle in 2001 at 18, Josh has worked hard to find his music and his band, and in the Pacific Northwest has found both.
Literally a man of the music world, bass player Patrick McDanel brings energy, professionalism, and a musical virtuosity that can only be called world class. Patrick has played internationally, and in every music hotbed in the United States. It''s hard for anyone else to stand out when Patrick is on the stage.
The newest member of the Josh Williamson Band, Matt Bos, is the perfect complement to the chemistry between Josh and Patrick. Having played drums since he was seven, Matt grew up associated with the music business, and had the opportunities to jam with the likes of Dick Dale in his own living room. Like Josh and Patrick, he has lived all over the United States, and brings a diverse taste in music that works well to round out the JWB sound.
Influenced by the greats and inspired by the classics, the JWB sound stands strong and unique on its 2002 debut CD, "A Working Man''s Breakfast", which showcases the band''s versatility and artistry with eleven rock originals garnering brisk sales, local radio play, and a wellspring word-of-mouth following.
