Let me introduce you to Brian Webb, the glue that holds this band together.
Brian owns several t-shirts advising his position as the Fixer with slogans like “I’m here because you broke something” and “That’s what I do. I know things, and I fix stuff.” When it comes to finding solutions, making things fit, and overcoming obstacles, Brian’s your guy. And that carries over into his guitar riffs, which hold the melody and rhythm sections together. Here are a few other tidbits of trivia about Brian:
- Brian’s first instrument was violin, which he started playing at age 6. As soon as he was skilled enough, his parents showed him off, having him play for parties and other events.
2. An electrical fire took out his whole house as a young kid. It was a crazy year of instability and rebuilding all the things that were lost, but it gave him a great perspective on what is really important in life. He must have known a little of that already since his reaction to seeing his life going up in flames was simply, “Wow. This is a really bad day.”
3. A motorcycle was his first vehicle. Back in the day, you could get your motorcycle license a year earlier than your driver’s license. The law has since changed, but he actually drove himself to Driver’s Ed.
4. Starting with the explosion of Guns N’ Roses through the current day, Saul Hudson, a.k.a. Slash has been Brian’s greatest musical influence. He followed Slash's influences back and now also draws from Gary Moore, Rory Gallager, and blues legend Stevie Ray Vaughan.
5. Brian has worked with vehicles his entire life. When your father custom paints vehicle murals and owns an auto body shop, it’s just in the blood. His dad officially gave him a paycheck at age 14, and he has continued on and off ever since.
Now that we're friends, reach out and say hi! Send us an email and tell Brian how much you appreciate his contribution to this band or whatever else you find interesting. We hope to hear from you soon!
