GREAT BLUES MUSIC FROM
SKINNY LEGS AND ALL
FEATURING
AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT
JESSE BARRY
“At heart we’re rockers but we still love to play the blues”
We started off as a middle school elective in 2007. Skinny white boys fronted by a petite young redhead with serious pipes – Holy Koko Taylor! Playing the 60’s & 70’s R&B of our parents generation, it just felt right. When the elective was over – we wanted more.
So became Skinny Legs & All – Asheville, North Carolina’s freshest young band. Our rockin’ originals and youthful renditions of classic Blues, Funk, & Soul are "making waves" on the music scene.
Jesse’s voice has been likened to a combination of Aretha Franklin and Susan Tedeschi. Paul, our senior member, is “straight from the fridge…cool” on the keys. David lays down hot licks on his cherry red guitar. Avi, our youngest cat, plays that thumpin’ bass like he’s been doin’ it since he was in the crib. Colin, our “lucky charm”, keeps it all together as the backbone of our rhythm section.
We deliver lip smacking, dance inspiring, mood altering grooves with strong soulful vocals that will lead you on a journey from a slow shuffle to booty shakin’ madness.
We are proud to be founding members of the Southern Fried Blues Society and were honored to represent them in Memphis at the International Blues Challenge Youth Showcase in 2009 and 2010.
