The New Big Hands Colvin Band includes Jesse Savage on guitar, Tyrone Hall on stand-up bass, and Randall Ireland on percussion, On their latest CD Rainy Days, The Big Hands Colvin Band takes on standards like " The Beat Goes On, " shares regrets on tracks like "I Didn't Know," and takes us on a trip back in time with the poignant "This Town." Influences range from country to jazz, but every song is unmistakably Big Hands. If you've caught one of the live shows then you've had a taste of Colvin's sense of humor--which is front and center in the break-up song "Selfish Bitch," and the ball-and-chain ballad "Thangs."
