Carolyn is currently working on her debut solo album, a knock-out mix of jazz twinged, retro rock Americana songs. Three new tracks from this project are available for listening and download via her website. Her first solo release, a holiday single called George Bailey, has been played on radio stations across the country, on its way to becoming a new Christmas classic. When not fronting Boss Tweed or her solo project with her Fender bass, Carolyn Sills, a Chicago native, can be seen performing the music of Patsy Cline with The Poor Man's Roses
as her backing band. The group is known for impeccably replicating that
late 50s, early 60s Nashville sound, and she pays excellent tribute to
Patsy's swooning vocal style. Visit her website for all that is Carolyn. In addition to writing and performing music, Carolyn enjoys photography, drawing monsters and huevos rancheros.
Gerard Egan began playing music at the age of 5, squealing out tunes on a violin. In his teens he discovered a love for guitar and Freddie King bootlegs. Playing in a slew of bands since he was 14, Gerard has played everything from Slash in the world famous Guns n Roses tribute band, Mr. Brownstone to bass/guitar for British singer/songwriter Warren Malone and most recently electric bass for the Brazillian guitar sensation Joao Erbetta. Currently dolling out heavy dollops of twang n' echo on his hollow body Gretsch in Boss Tweed, you may also see him banging around town on his National Resophonic Baritone guitar or fronting the insane-o spaghetti western surf rock combo, Los Beardos Raviolis.
Performing in blues and rock outfits since he was at a tender age, New Orleans born drummer Eric Reed has seen, heard and played it all. When not performing with Boss Tweed, he can be found sitting in with bands of all styles, from blues to progressive rock to full on metal. We highly recommend you check out his newest project, Tens of Thousands. Eric is also an accomplished recording enginner, and single handedly recorded and mixed Boss Tweed's debut album. He can also pull a quarter out of your ear while making a roux.
