Big Something brings jam band goodness to St. Louis
North Carolina-based improvisational rock band Big Something came roaring into St Louis on April 18th and I could not have been more excited.

When I first learned about this band back then, honestly, I didn’t know what to expect, but I had a blast working the festival and really started to get into this particular sound. Not only did Big Something have an incredibly exciting live show, but their soulful, charming lyrics and countless musical styles blended together into an impressive creation that left me intoxicated. From towering guitar solos to strong and precise drumming, all the way to my first experience hearing an EWI (or Electronic Wind Instrument, which undoubtedly leaves a mark on each song and, in turn, on each show), it left me craving that feeling again, that vibe, that experience of just getting so lost in the music it takes you to another dimension.
