Woodshedding

Hey 'Bucker fans! You're probably wondering what we have been up to in the last couple of months. OK, maybe not since there are more pressing issues to attend to. But, we'll tell you anyway!

We've been hitting the studio working on new material and tightening up things. We've got 4 new tunes that we are currently rehearsing and polishing up for your listening pleasure. We are also experimenting with some different equipment in an effort to further shape our sound. We're hoping you will like what you hear at the next show. Speaking of which, we are planning a gig in October, so stay tuned and keep 'buckin!

RIP Les Paul

Today we lost one of the most important figures in the music world- Les Paul. He may not have been perceived as an icon, but his famous guitar design most assuredly is. The Gibson Les Paul guitar is, along with the Fender Stratocaster (RIP Leo), one of the most recognizeable instruments in any genre of music.

Les Paul was an inventor and innovator, creating many of the recording techniques that are still widely used to this day.
