Famous Men Biography
Famous Men is a roots/folk/rock band from Boulder, CO, focusing on the folk tradition of songwriting paired with the live performance and energy of a rock band.
Famous Men takes its name from a non-fiction literary work by James Agee called "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men." In this book, Agee chronicles the stories of poor white southern tenement farmers during The Great Depression, telling the story of people who would be forgotten by time. The idea of the title is all people are famous in their own right and we impress the generations around us.
Famous Men's debut record features performances by notable guests including Bridget Law (Fiddle; formerly of Elephant Revival), Jeb Bows (Fiddle; Gasoline Lollipops, Gregory Alan Isakov) and Chris Plante (Keys; The Brew). The release is centered around a roots-based blues sound featuring the slide guitar and vocals of Hunter Stone. The band is glued together by the rhythm section featuring Joe Plante on bass and Joshua Thomas on drums.
