Tommy Gallagher and his Incredible Friends
Kick out the jams with Tommy Gallagher and friends ©
By Connie J. Schlosberg
Tommy Gallagher’s Incredible Friends’ music kicks off with a punch. Self-described as a “Seasoned, Professional, Fun loving Jamband,” Tommy provides an innovative sound to some great favorites. Their rendition of the Allman Brothers jazz-influenced instrumental “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed” is phenomenal. Versions of “Little Wing” and “Cosmic Ray” are remarkable. Their approach is unconstrained, unhindered expression of complete freedom for the music.
Based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Tommy got together with award winning guitarist/vocalist Michael Reese, bassist Kim Stone, a five-time Grammy nominee, former Spyra Gyra alumni and current member of the Rippingtons, and drummer Lenny Campanaro, the formerly of Badfinger, Iron Butterfly and his own band Private Life in the autumn of 2007. Both individually and collectively these guys rock the house. No need for fancy showmanship – the music speaks for itself. A vision of true musicianship!

About Connie J. Schlosberg I’ve been both a music fan and a participant for as long as I’ve been around. I’ve been a deadhead, a parrothead and a metal mamma. My interest for progressive music started after high school when I dated a guy who was heavy into such bands as Yes and Rush. He didn’t last long but my love for prog rock did. I expanded my horizons to any artist who is willing to put it all out there. When I studied acting at the Theatre of Arts in Los Angeles, my friends and I would hang out at the Rainbow and Gazzarri’s, furthering my tastes to heavy metal. I figured I would put my journalistic chops to good measure and start this site – both to entertain myself and expose new sounds to anyone daring enough to be open-minded.
