Mr. Blotto was born in Chicago as an off-night vehicle for musicians who loved each others playing but were in different bands at the time. The only rule was that they would only play what they loved. That philosophy continues today and has led Mr. Blotto into unique musical situations.

Mr. Blotto takes the Jam band asthetic into areas unfamiliar to the standard Jam Scene. They have been known to cover entire albums by Led Zeppelin and the Who as well as perform entire shows of Country and Reggae. Artists as diverse as the Grateful Dead, the Flaming Lips, Willie Nelson and The Velvet Underground have seen their material interpreted by Mr. Blotto in the 2000+ shows the band has performed in the last 15 years, yet covers only pepper the bands hefty catalog of original material stemming from five studio albums and other unreleased crowd favorites.

Like a recurring rash or the metric system, Little Big Fat flares up just when you think it’s gone. Twelve years in, the collaboration presents as a deep musical itch, the scratching of which reveals the band’s heyday. The recent addition of Marc Gee on vocals and keys adds depth, range, and fullness while Dave Langley’s sultry bass stylings subtly bind the proceedings with a solid yet squishy sense of adventure. Steeped in rock nostalgia but tilting slightly progressive, LBF blends together songs you know and songs you think you know. All are handled with care by those that consider both the jam and the integrity of the song’s foundation equally worthy of focus.
