The Little Wheels Band is an emerging West Coast Country Rock / Americana phenomena touring together since December of 2003. Right away this rag-tag band of fathers, lovers and stead fast musical patriots quickly made an impression. Continuing to forge through many of the defining Bay Area musical haunts a common sentiment emerged. ?You guys are best band we?ve heard in years?. This has led to some fun work for band including opening slots at the 2004 Grand National Rodeo and for Sara Evans. Also in the mix was some West Coast Television, band favorite funky roadhouse shows and some high paying swank holiday parties. The Little Wheel Band debut CD is strong, perhaps as strong as the legendary debut material by band musical influences Hank Williams, The Band, The Grateful Dead and Johnny Cash. From their debut CD the single ?She?s the One? is scheduled to air this spring in 26 countries on 550 country stations. LWB is a 6-piece country rock-jam band is led by songwriter/producer Michael John Ahern (guitar, vocals) and songwriter Lachlann Kane(piano, vocals) performing booty swayin? songs written by such legendary songwriters as John Prine, Jagger and Richards, Ernest Tubbs, Johnny Cash and Steve Goodman. Add to the mix the deep end of Berkeley bassist Rob ?mojo ? Wenig who brings forward a pychadelic jazz feel, rock drummer Harold ? triple D? Ohashi, percussionist Drew Pieros , and bluesy harp and vocals by Bocephus Putnam.
