Mudfish - Rock Band
At the time of recording the Mudfish band line-up was Hank Thorpe, Dan Shippey, Bret Keys and Mike Rigby. A great straight ahead rock guitar band from Tehachapi, California.

Mudfish is featured on the Road Records compilation CD New Faces Volume Four with the song "Shotgun Sam" They were engineered by David Grasico and mixed by Conrad Askland.

"This is good no-nonsense rock 'n roll. Strong driving beats, crunchy dual guitars and good ZZ Top style vocals", says producer Conrad Askland. "They would go over equally well at a biker bar or a southern rock club."

Formed in November of 1999, "Mudfish" combines the forces of two now defunct cover bands, "The Ragged Edge Band", and "Jester". Utilizing the musicianship and tight vocal harmonies of Thorpe and Rigby, as well as a polished rhythm section in Keys and Shippey, "Mudfish" has earned a reputation as a cut above the average cover band. The ever growing repertoire of the band contains the best of the rock and roll standards, as well as many current radio hits.

Bret Keys
Bret is a native Californian. He has handled drums and percussion for countless bands. He supplies his services to several other projects as well a Mudfish. As one would expect from constant playing, his ability, style, and depth are unsurpassed.
Bret can also be seen performing with "Tanya and the Wallbangers", "PowerSerge", and "Gypsee and Band X"

Mike Rigby
A native of Palmdale CA, Mike has played in several cover and original rock bands from here to the Pacific Northwest. Although his style leans toward rock contemporary, he has all the chops and then some to play anything from the "Classic Rock" era.
Dan Shippey
Dan is a native of Mojave, CA, where music seems to be the norm. Starting out as a guitar player, he finally found a home playing bass for several bands over the years. After a nine year gig with "The Ragged Edge Band", Dan has landed in to what he considers to be the "best one yet!".

Hank Thorpe A native of Georgia, Hank is a long time California transplant (thanks to the U.S. Air Force). His vocal ability and guitar style are well known in the local area. His look and musical style bring a "Southern" touch to Mudfish.
