TRG Records

The John Ewing Band

The band is related to every musician in the Twin Cities Metro area, if you go by the seven degrees of separation (the idea that any two people are related within seven). Every member of this group is o grizzled veteran of the rock scene, drummer Tom Cook has played in roughly o skojillion bands including the Magnolias and Big Trouble House. Guitarist Steve Brantseg has been in with such pop luminaries as Block Spot and Bosh 'n Pop, bassist Johnny 0' Holloran is a TRG veteran not only as part of JEB, he is also in the current line up of the Magnolias, and the soon to be released Magnatones. And John Ewing the mop harried glory boy behind it all, o survivor of a million and one Texas garage bonds (well, OK not o million, but o couple.)
