Biography
Floodplane is a four- piece rock and roll band in the tradition of The Allman Brothers, Phish, and the Dead. Floodplane has been playing since the fall of 1996 and the current line up (Billy Kearney - guitar/vocals, Gwen Page - keyboards/vocals, Justin Karl - bass/vocals, Todd Cumming - drums) have been playing together since the fall of 1998. All four members were raised in the Midwest, and their musical influences might be described as "eclectic" - ranging from bebop, swing, traditional folk, jazz, blues, rock & roll (of course), roots reggae and hip hop; they even cite The Simpsons as inspiration.
Even with such a wide range of influences (or perhaps because of it), Floodplane delivers a show that is fun, non-offensive and appeals to rock concert fans of all ages. Floodplane has had the opportunity to have such national acts as Little Feat, Ziggy Marley, Merl Saunders, Umphrey''s McGee, Robert Walters, Garaj Mahal, the Big Wu, and Tea Leaf Green close their shows. Floodplane has shown they are as comfortable in an intimate setting as they are in front of thousands of people. Floodplane has what it takes to rock your venue.
