Bringing you the music.
Fat Possum Caravan
Fat Possum/Big Legal Mess Caravan tour.
Fall 2009 Line up:
Jack Oblivian
John Paul Keith and The 145s
Jack "Oblivian" Yarber of The Tearjerkers was a key figure in the influential, Memphis based Compulsive Gamblers and the legendary '90s garage-punk band The Oblivians.
Though, to only ramble on about Yarber’s work with The Oblivians and skim over his other bands would be a cryin' shame. Beside the stack of gritty garage-punk that Yarber contributed to, are all of his other records that have consistently become more polished and focused throughout the years.
Yarber was born 100 miles away from Memphis in the small town of Corinth, Mississippi. However, by 1987, the bright lights of Memphis called and Yarber became a permanent fixture in the city that arguably invented rock-n-roll.
Jack Oblivian's MySpace Page.
Keith moved to Memphis a couple of years ago and hooked up with Alvin Youngblood Hart's former rhythm section, bassist M. Edgar Stuart and drummer John Argroves. Not content to embarrass just themselves, they soon recruited guitarist Kevin Cubbins, along with pedal steel player John Whittemore and organist/piano man Al Gamble. The result is the grand tradition of Memphis rock n roll, updated for modern ears.
Late October through November 2009. Details forthcoming.
