Big Sandy and His Fly-Rite BoysSince forming in 1988, Big Sandy & His Fly-Rite Boys have emerged as one of the world's most respected practitioners of American roots music—western swing, rockabilly, and traditional country—playing it like they invented it. "I think of us as just a rock and roll band—a rock and roll band that's letting the roots show," says bandleader Big Sandy. Whether they're playing the Grand Ole Opry, Late Night With Conan O'Brien, or simply climbing out of a bus after rolling into your town, these guys are bringing us some great old-time rock and roll.

One World TribeHip Hop, Reggae, Funk, Latin Music, World Music "From reggae to soul, Jazz to salsa to African pop, they cover styles like water covers the globe"; Dave Richards, Erie Daily Times. "The musicianship is impeccable and One World Tribe keeps the energy level poppin'"; Jamie Moses, Buffalo Art Voice. "One World Tribe's Unity & Diversity has more soul, brims with more vitality, than half the discs that pass for music on corporate labels"; Doc Rock, Erie Daily Times. "One World Tribe is tighter than any band that comes thru town, much less any band from town"; Randy Baumann, WDVE Radio Pittsburgh. "They mistrust power, decry poverty and violence, urge tolerance and respect of peoples differences. And yet - beyond the lyrics - they say all this by the simple act of standing together on stage making music"; Doc Rock, Erie Daily Times. "The band also had quite a stage show augmenting the basic octet with 3 or 4 dedicated percussionists and a quintet of dancers that moved like a combination of holiness parishioners and an African chorus line"; Buffalo News Gusto. |
