The Bigefellas are the featured band for the month of October. I find these guys to be absolutely hilarious and I love playing them at least once a week during my shows. Below you will find their bio as posted on MySpace.
San Diego’s The Bigfellas are a four-piece band of smartasses with original songs like 4:20, I Wish That I Were Gay, Adam & Eve & Ted & Alice among others. The bands sound is a mélange of The Police and Steely Dan yet with the oft-goofy approach of Barenaked Ladies (whom we know we can easily take in a barfight, give us one time and those Canadian hipsters are going down!).
They’re aggressively eclectic in jumping genres slacker jamband, blues, faux-country, funk/jazz, cabaret, or Stones. In addition to inventing the smartass genre, theyve also single-handedly invented the one-song genre of Golf Rap with the song On The Green, hands-down the most foul-mouthed golf song of all time.
Here are a few samples of their songs from the album “Chubbed Up“.
The Bigfellas – California King
The Bigfellas – I Wish That I Were Gay
The Bigfellas – On The Green
The Bigfellas – 420
