Tour Schedule
KATHY KALLICK & THE WINDFALLS July 30: The Torch Club, Sacramento July 31: The Freight, Berkeley Aug. 1: The Lost Church, Santa Rosa |
The Kathy Kallick Band has played, worked, collaborated, and put our heads together for the last 17 years. Tom Bekeny, Annie Staninec, Greg Booth, and Cary Black have had huge creative input on every song we’ve recorded, as we build arrangements and find the magic.
That said, it’s been thrilling hearing Greg play pedal steel as well as dobro, Cary groove on electric bass, Annie shred some rockabilly, and Tom stretching out into blues, folk, and classic country. Bringing in Billy D. Thompson on drums was a clear choice, as he and Juniper have their own band (The Gold Souls) and he’s a fabulous, in-demand musician with such versatility. Annie has played Cajun music with Mitch Polzak for many years in Andrew Carrier’s bands, and, as he played his first lines on “He’s Got A Way With Women,” we all agreed he was the absolute right spice for this feast.
Each of these musicians had a time when their ideas were the essential element.
And everybody else stirred the pot.
This is not an album with a bunch of studio musicians, but more like a family band!
