Original atmospheric, rhythmic, jazzy blues-rock. Portland's preeminent (read: only) scat-rock band. Recommend them to your local decision-makers! You know.
Portland's premiere (read: only) acoustic scat-rock ensemble, Cody Weathers & The Men Your Mama Warned You About play everywhere coffee & muffins are sold. Rhythmic, atmospheric, bluesy originals played differently every time. "...upbeat original scat-rock; suitable for children and mildly immature adults..."
--The Oregonian, 1/21/11
Jean Gustin: guitar
Sean Mersereau: bass, backing vocals, add'l instruments
Cody Weathers: vocals, drums & percussion, rhythm guitar, keyboards
Bio: Perhaps you know me as the lead singer and drummer of Flip Nasty. Perhaps you love my work with UFO Catcher. Perhaps you live in the same house as me. It doesn't matter --you're here now. I play this guitar and bang these drums and sing my little nerdy sing-songs, and let me tell you something: I am totally pretty OK at this stuff. I've been doing it a long time, and I've got some outstandingly altogether decentish material that you would be pleasantly undisappointed to check out or purchase --hey, no pressure, just one man's opinion, OK? But don't listen to me, hear the word on the street. This is what my mother --who doesn't even listen to music-- says (she lives in a house on a street, so this is totally street-word right here): "Cody is pretty good, considering." I won't argue, Mom, I am pretty good, considering. I do all my own stunts. Harrison Ford, too. He's cool, right? Me too. I'm cool. Probably --you be the judge, I mean.
