They are Americana pioneers, well before Americana was coined. The subdudes came to the Music Fog bus and brought the grace of New Orleans, and the stewpot of various roots music to life in our front lounge. I had asked Aaron, our audio engineer, how many bandmates we could comfortably accomodate, and he said three. But then I talked to Tommy Malone and he gathered up ALL the guys, and five of them squeezed in, got really cozy, and serenaded us from the Beatles catalog while we were setting up. Yowsa! Someone said, “There’s way too many subdudes on the bus,” to which one of them replied “Get The Spray!” Another said, "The spray would only make them scurry, but then they would come out again at night!" Too true. There is such ease with this band of brothers from another mother. We are so happy to have had them. They just keep getting better and better. Love!
