Having amazed growing audiences in the Bay Area throughout the past few years, they have become one of the fastest evolving musical acts on the West Coast. TLG's powerful rock and roll style allows the band to feature their diverse songwriting sensibilities and astounding amounts of raw talent. While TLG's roots are firmly planted in rock history, you are certain to be wowed by the sheer power of instrumental exploration, sensitive lyrical melodies and diverse range through the evening's performance. First time fans are initially drawn into Josh Clark's handy work on the lead guitar, quickly absorbing the influences of rock legends such as Jimi Hendrix or Duane Allman. Clearly gifted in the pursuit of musical peaks, Josh is joined by singer/songwriter Trevor Garrod on the pianos. Trevor's foundation lays in the spirit of Folk Rock, yet his own passion allows for more complex Neil Young-esque melodies and brilliant harmonies to continue the elevation of the jam. On the bass, we have Franz Hanzerbeak. Growing out of the Northern California high country, Franz's consistent foundation and energetic releases gives Tea Leaf Green that special blend of joyous celebration which keeps you wanting more. On the drum, Mr. Scott Rager is the glue which holds it all together laying down solid beats to allow for a brilliant array of musical exploration. Together, the Tea Leaf Green ensemble has the ability to take fans on a journey spanning all musical genres and delivering blistering next level epic peaks in one moment while cascading into a breathtaking moment of reflection grounded in true lyrical genius. As the bands momentum builds, audiences are left awe struck and amazed at the sheer intensity and good time feelings that emanate from the stage. In true Live Music fashion, Tea Leaf Green feeds off the audience's energy night after night, creating a collective musical experience that is both remarkable and historic. HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER High Plains Drifter is a rootsy funk and world beat ensemble, whose dynamic live performances are captivating audiences across Canada. Like imagery evoked by the mysterious quality of a traveling vagabond, High Plains Drifter is a collective of musicians traveling town to town bringing the energy of celebration to audiences everywhere. Leaning towards original roots, jazz, funk and world music, High Plains Drifter is a groove force that keeps dancehalls packed and bodies in constant motion. High Plains Drifter draws inspiration from artists as diverse as James Brown, Herbie Hancock and Jimmy Buffet. The group, known for their unpredictable stage show, has enjoyed collaborations with a number of Canadian musicians including members of The Jimmy Swift Band, Slowcoaster, Wassabi Collective, The Chameleon Project & Slammin' Jack as well as young horn players, percussionists and turn-tablists.
