OBS EPK (Electronic Press Kit)


Ol’ Brown Shoe is a 5 piece "jamband", with a wide appeal to audiences young and old. Incorporating elements of blues, roots rock, funk and more contemporary sounds, they create soundscapes over conventional songs using their improvisational prowess. Playing the North Shore of Boston since 1999, they have generated a loyal following in the area. Their promotional toolbox includes email, web page, myspace, posters, flyer handouts, local radio, newpaper ads, and good ol' word of mouth.
