More about us...
The Big Hungry consists of a group of local working professionals living in Hendersonville and Brevard,
North Carolina, who began playing music for fun in their spare time. They quickly noticed
that the sound they were creating was something special, and together they have produced their own original
music, with an eclectic sound ranging across musical genres including classic rock, funk, folk, and
reggae. Varied tastes and a love of all music has shaped the sound of their music
We are excited to be playing music for Western North Carolina and hope you will become
part of the The Big Hungry Family!

John's playing and vocals add multiple layers to the
group’s sound. Although he has not toured professionally, he has a heavily influenced musical background. He honed his harmonies participating in church choir and playing bluegrass with his family while growing up in Danville, VA.
Bob
lead guitar
Bob has spent many years mastering the techniques of the guitar and has played for multiple
bands in the Mid-Atlantic region including Quiet Marshall, Papa Fresh, and Mary Rhodes. These bands
were heavily influenced by 90's alternative music but mixed in the improvisational jam band sounds of the
grateful dead and the classic rock tones of Jimi Hendrix and Pink Floyd. His guitar licks undoubtedly
shape the sound of The Big Hungry.
