- Cigar_Store_Indians abstract "Cigar Store Indians are a rockabilly band from Crabapple, Georgia.The band formed in the summer of 1991 when singer/songwriter Ben Friedman and lead guitar player Jimmy "Lownote" Lavender began to work on songs together, as both musicians shared a love for the 1950s blues/country sound (now called rockabilly music). Ben's childhood friend, drummer Frances "Fast Pedal" Farran was enlisted to play the drums. Many nights were spent practicing in "Fast Pedal" Farran's shed. Friend and guitarist Rob Fickling was asked to switch to Bass guitar and the first incarnation of CSI was born.In 1995, after developing a large fan base in and around Atlanta, GA, the band was offered their first recording contract on Landslide Records. It featured Lavender on lead guitar, new member Keith Perissi on Bass, Farran on drums, and Friedman on guitar and vocals. The record was produced and engineered by Rodney Mills and recorded in Atlanta,GA at Triclops studio. Constant touring and memorable songs landed the self-titled first release to #3 on the Gavin Americana Charts. Highlights included an extended tour with the Squirrel Nut Zippers.The band made a switch to drummer David "Pup" Roberts for their second release, "El Baile de la Cobra", which was recorded for the North Carolina label, Deep South Records. Rodney Mills again was enlisted to produce and engineer the record. The album quickly rose to #10 on the Gavin Americana Charts.The third recording, "Guestlist", was a live recording for, Atlanta-based, Overall Records and gave listeners a chance to sit in on a CSI live set from Smith's Olde Bar and Eddies Attic, both local Atlanta music mainstay clubs. It featured a new drummer, Paul Barrie, who had previously been with Atlanta band, Donkey, Jim "Lownote" Lavender on lead guitar and vocals, Keith Perissi on bass guitar and vocals, and Ben Friedman on lead vocals and guitar. This lineup toured extensively in the United States and Europe.Their last album, "Built of Stone", was recorded by Jeff Bakos at his Amp Works Studio and was mastered by Rodney Mills; it was released on Overall Records. It featured Paul Barrie on drums, Keith Perissi on bass guitar, Friedman on guitar and vocals, and Jeff Sprayberry on lead guitar.For many years the band was on hiatus but recently as of 2012, Ben and Jimmy "Lownote", along with former members of the band "The Blue Jays", Jay Murphree (upright Bass) and Matt Spaugh (drums), have begun to perform live. One can only surmise that the cable TV show "Cafe Racer", which uses the Cigar Store Indians' song "Get on the Throttle" as its opening theme, has sparked a renewed interest in the band.Starting in 2014 a new chapter of Cigar Store Indians has begun. Adding Micah Cadwell on lead guitar and vocals, Todd Kerstetter on upright bass and vocals, and Charlie Blevins on drums and vocals, they plan to write and record the first new Cigar Store Indians material since the last LP "Built of Stone" was released in 2004. Also be on the look out for a US tour in support of the new album in 2014. Current / Past band members include :".
