ABOUT
Fo' Paw Trio (meaning Faux Paux as in French for social mishap, spelled funny) currently plays gigs in the cover circuit, in Texas and Oklahoma, but will be spanning-out farther soon. We cover hits mostly, but from all eras and genres of music. I, Aaron Loesch front the band with some vocal rasp, and a warm guitar tone. I am the 2007 Guitar Center "King of the Blues" national contest winner, and I play each show with as much heart as I did to win in '07. My drummer, Casey Cowling plays like an overjoyed monkey, and with interesting dynamic and perfect timing. Fo' Paw Trio has an original twist as well that delivers a unique sound, blending 70's rock with old delta blues and house rockin' blues, and modern R&B dance beats.... an all in all experimental band with a sophisticated and stylish approach. Currently, we are seeking a bass player (male or female) who fingerpicks overhand style, and a female vocalist, to optimize our song choices, who can play either guitar or keyboard to fill the void between my leads and the bass. We'd like at this point to go ahead and include a 4th member, and will change the name accordingly.
