Bio
Big Pants transcends generations and genres with universal themes based in the traditions of American music, building on the solid rock foundation of such artists as the Band, Marvin Gaye, the Replacements, and Steve Earle. John Fielding formed Big Pants in the spring of 2001 upon returning to his hometown of Washington, D.C. after traveling and honing his songwriting skills in Brooklyn, Seattle, and California. When his childhood friend and bassist, Rory Lovett, moved back to D.C. from L.A. they recruited the hyper-talented jazz player, Ed Barnabas, on drums. After three weeks of rehearsing they started gigging and began recording with producer Bob Hitchcock soon thereafter. Local legend Tom Guernsey (of the late 60's Garage Rock icons The Hangmen) added lead guitar in the studio rounding out the bands sound. They now comprise a formidable quartet as a live band as well as in the studio.
