Details:
Emerging from the acoustic string band tradition, Quickdraw String Band plays a repertoire of Old-Time fiddle music, Country Blues, Folk Songs, Celtic, and Ragtime. Experienced and hard working, they have been performing around Washington State, USA, for the past three years. Quickdraw String Band currently consists of Dave Maguire, Matt Novak, and Robert "Goldtooth" Ray. "Blasting Caps" was released at the apex of the "Ziffle Period," during which multi-instrumentalist Allegra Ziffle played fiddle with the band. "Blasting Caps" is a collection of 17 stellar tracks, a fine sampling of the type of music that the band played live throughout their 2 1/2 years together as a four-piece.

Their energetic approach and innovative interpretations, vocally and instrumentally, make it obvious to see how Quickdraw has become one of the most popular acts around Whatcom County, Washington. very unique in their adaptions of various acoustic genres. Their style often defies categorization into any singular acoustic genre, but is definitely solidly grounded in acoustic tradition. This is exactly what makes them completely unique. It is the strong and varying backgrounds of the members that makes the combination so intriguing and distinct. Dave has played in Cajun and Punk-influenced bands in the past, and is currently playing with the local Bellingham bluegrass band, "Feed And Seed." Matt, schooled in the piano as a teenager, transferred to the guitar and learned well how to drive a fiddle tune as well as write a song, which has earned him a name as a solo act. He is currently working on his second solo release. Goldtooth, though strongly schooled and raised in Appalachian tradition, brings a strong blues and swing influence to the table, and is the frontman for his swing band, Goldtooth Deluxe.

Quickdraw String Band's "Blasting Caps" is a welcome addition to the traditional music cannon, and makes for a fine addition to any acoustic music lover's library. And the packaging too, is lovingly crafted, fed one-by-one through an old-school printing press. You'll love it, we swear.
