The Artisans

Ok, This band has come together from very different places and styles of music. Starting in Late 2009 two guys (Preston Taylor and Thomas Upshaw) from two different bands in the south Louisiana music scene started playing music. They didn't know what kind of music to make so they just started playing some random chords and danced to colors of acid in there head and...well the blues emerged. Thats it! 'Hey friend wanna start a blues band?" Preston said while making a grilled cheese sandwhich. ...

Ok, This band has come together from very different places and styles of music. Starting in Late 2009 two guys (Preston Taylor and Thomas Upshaw) from two different bands in the south Louisiana music scene started playing music. They didn't know what kind of music to make so they just started playing some random chords and danced to colors of acid in there head and...well the blues emerged. Thats it! 'Hey friend wanna start a blues band?" Preston said while making a grilled cheese sandwhich. "Maybe" Thomas said with passion, while trying to seduce a group of thirty four year old women into a game of monopoly. Soon after, the hunt for a drummer and singer began to be an extreme challenge. Preston started drinking heavily because of this and found himself drunk and crying at a local bar named Renee's more often then he would have liked. One night after trying to get his friend Catherine to sleep with him and his two friends Dragon and lion. Preston met a strange hairy man named Trey Fernand. Later that night after many shots and handshakes, Trey finally revealed he was a drummer looking to be in a blues band. They celebrated with women and strong drink. Now Thomas, still searching the interweb for a girl to take home to mom came across an old friend. His name was Gabe and he was a master in the ways of women. Thomas desperate, sent him a message and guess what..? Gabriel Luke DeVill was back in town looking to sing a few songs and get his funk back. We were more then happy to help. Today Preston is a recovering alcoholic but he's ok with that. Thomas has found a few more girls to add on facebook, he's currently talking to all five. Trey "Birdman" is unrecognizable today due to a huge beard that has covered almost his entire body. Gabe Devill is still looking for 101 dalmatians, but has put that on hold for the band. Today you can find them on your local stage. One thing they ask is "Can you Digg it?"
