Album Notes

Sharp Tooth Benny Bio:

Sharp Tooth Benny is a band that all you true Blues and Rock enthusiasts should enjoy. Sharp Tooth Benny recently completed their 1st full-length CD release entitled, “Slinky Sounds For Reptilian Lovers”. The music is reminiscent of an early ZZ Top/Johnny Cash style groove with hints of Social Distortion, Govt. Mule, Stone Temple Pilots & others slipping in from time to time. These guys play great driving music with toe-tappin' grooves you can really cruise to...

Sharp Tooth Benny’s new CD, “Slinky Sounds For Reptilian Lovers”, is a nine song original CD. There’s something for just about everyone on this diverse album as it covers a diverse range song styles. From straight blues to heavier rock tunes and a few stops in between, a very interesting group of musicians & friends have joined together to form this band and together Sharp Tooth Benny seems able to fill the void our music world has been feeling. You should pick up your copy of "Slinky Sounds for Reptilian Lovers" today!…

While trying to stay true to some tried & true blues-rock principles with sure-to-be hits like, “Cadillac” , “Big Green Lizard” , “I Never Thought” and “Looker”, Sharp Tooth Benny has also been able to branch out and include some distinct new musical stylings of their own
with crowd favorites like, “Little Fishy”, “The Morning Song”, “Everything Girl”, “The Game” and others.
The boys have also forged a true classic with Truth/Lies/Hate/Love. This type of musical diversity gives the band a truly eclectic appeal that gratifies their audiences and will satisfy you if you’re looking for something different in a blues-rock band.

Sharp Tooth Benny consists of former ”Sizzle” front man, Mike McLaury, belting out lead vocals and groovin’ on rhythm guitar. There’s also fellow songwriter, Terry Sheppard, previously of “Dr. Joy”, who provides some truly solid bass lines while filling out the vocal harmonies. Well versed former “Saint’s We Ain’t” axe-slinger, “Little Man” Tate Sanderson wails on lead guitar, and talented newcomer Noah “Boom Boom” Bloom keeps things moving on drums/percussion. Special guest appearances are also made on a couple tunes by the incredible, Tim “The Teacher” Fennel of Motus on lead guitar. Mike, Terry and Noah provide a rocking musical foundation to stand on while Tate & Tim fill the grooves with some tasteful yet smokin' leads.

These guys love to have fun and while the band is primarily blues based, the live-shows exhibit an unusual amount of energy and crowds are often treated to a bit of improv and some wackiness. You never know what might happen at a Sharp Tooth Benny show…

Most of Sharp Tooth Benny is currently based in Southern California while band founder, Mike McLaury now resides in Golden, Co. and is working online with “Phat B” on more material for the next CD.
