Lil Band o' Gold features the most important musicians to ever have emerged from Louisiana. In fact, Brian Wise, editor of Rhythms Magazine said they were the best band he saw at the recent Jazz Fest in New Orleans! Often described as a Swamp Pop supergroup, Lil Band o' Gold was formed by vocalist and guitarist CC Adcock, who searched the swamps and flatlands of South Louisiana to form a band of unsurpassed talents. This process was filmed for the documentary The Promised Land: A Swamp Pop Journey. Each musician in Lil Band o Gold is a master of a separate style, both diverse and exciting. Singer and drummer Warren Storm is considered the Godfather of Swamp Pop. At the age of 68, his voice is still second to none. Warren has been responsible for dozens of national and regional hit records since he first broke into the US charts in 1958. Richard Comeaux is flat out the best pedal-steel player in Louisiana and is currently signed to Capital Records with his band River Road. Steve Riley is widely considered one of the world's premier accordion players. His band, Steve Riley and The Mamou Playboys, have recorded seven albums, won countless awards and been nominated for three Grammy Awards. Tommy McLain, born in 1940, is considered the founding father of Swamp Pop music. In 1966 his record 'Sweet Dreams' was a multimillion-selling smash. He has never stopped performing and has enjoyed much success and recognition the world over, touring with the Rolling Stones, ZZ Top and the Yardbirds. CC Adcock has packed a lot of living into his 33 years with long stints slinging guitar with Bo Diddley and Buckwheat Zydeco, two highly acclaimed solo records, two feature film scores, album productions and thousands of live shows worldwide.
