What bands are currently inspiring the music that you’re making?

"Big G's biggest influence was an "indie soul" band from the 50's known as "The Fugues". Unfortunately their one and only record burned up in a studio fire right after final mixing. We survived solely on sheet music and the legend of a bootleg rehearsal recording somewhere in existence."

Was there a particular band/artist or concert that inspired you to start a band?

"The unwavering refusal to fool or deceive our fans in anyway is in fact what makes Big G itself unimaginable." 

Is there anything else you would like to add?

"Sonically we don't calculate down to mp3. Subsequently our records aren't meant to be listened to at portable device levels. They were mastered at an alarming volume by "Big Bottom" Bob Lanzner. We blew itunes right out the water. we want people to hear our music on the biggest level possible"
