- Bio:
- Since instantly materializing on the SF club circuit in the fall of 2007, Big Light has undergone change after change in an effort to staff the band properly and achieve the cohesive sound that Big Light's songwriter, vocalist and guitarist - Fred Torphy - is looking for. Those changes are now history as the band has settled on a permanent lineup and are hard at work on their first full-length LP (the follow up to their eponymous 2008 EP) at Coyote Hearing in Oakland, CA. Joining Torphy (lead vocals/guitar) both on stage and in the studio is founding Big Light member Bradly Bifulco on drums, Steve Adams (also of ALO) on bass and backing vocals, and Jeremy Korpas on guitar. In a recent interview with the SF Examiner, Torphy offered the group’s current attitude, “It's the perfect lineup for us."
Since debuting the current lineup on May 15, 2009 at San Francisco's Make Out Room, Big Light has been legging it out on the road, and come the end of this summer will have played to fans all over California, Utah and Washington, highlighted by appearances at the Outside Lands Music Festival, Wanderlust, Dessert Rocks, Summer Meltdown, and High Sierra Music Festival (where they played the Main Stage this year).
Catching wind of their development, JamBase recently reported: "They have strong opinions about what works and what doesn't, and as they take the highway – as with this ‘Piece Together Wings Tour’ with [Nathan] Moore – they are putting in the stage hours to become a really fine band... Each time I catch them live they are a bit better, and well more than a bit at this particular concert." (Dennis Cook)
2009 has already seen a glut of new material from the San Francisco-based, experimental pop-rock quartet, so, stay tuned... lots more to come.
