Event Description

SINKFUL OF FISHES: Performing Oasis’ (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? in its entirety
Sinkful Of Fishes began as an idea formed between friends and guitarists Mike Maddalena and Ken Green (Deep Shag/Tall Poppy Syndrome) over a couple of pints of Boddingtons Pub Ale. Mike has been a lover of BritPop since Blur’s Leisure gave American Grunge a kick in the arse. So, when Ken suggested putting a band together and picking the quintessential album to cover in its entirety, it didn’t take long to settle on the U.K.’s best selling album of the 90s… Oasis’ (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?. So after a few more pints with bassist Steve McKinley (Little Wing Experience), drummer Rodman Truesdell (Sawzall Doll), and keyboardist Jim Combs (Blackfox/Sensitive Chaos), SOF was off and running!

Steeped in the sounds of classic rock, southern rock, and blues, Blind Jive’s soulful original music and carefully curated covers belies their young age. The band’s sound runs the gamut from the bluesy swamp rock of the Beatles ‘Come Together’ era to the more soul and gospel feel of the Tedeschi Trucks Band. Built on the strong foundation of drummer Pierce Tanner, bassist Josh Hall, and keyboardist Micah MacLane, the twin attack of Max Bittner’s exemplary guitar skills and lead singer Maggie Sea graves’ vibrant voice combine to create a fresh, contemporary edge to the classic sounds of blues and rock past.
