About the Show
THE FABULOUS THUNDERBIRDS
A WAZ Production in Association with Edward Montgomery Fine Art
For over 30 years, The Fabulous Thunderbirds have been the quintessential American band. The group’s distinctive and powerful sound, influenced by a diversity of musical styles, manifested itself into a unique musical hybrid via such barnburners as “Tuff Enuff” and “Wrap It Up”. Co-founder Kim Wilson, the sole original member, still spearheads the group as it evolves into its newest incarnation.
In 1979, The Fabulous Thunderbirds released their first self-titled album.
Primarily blues influenced, it became a cult classic. The album “T-Bird Rhythm” marked a creative turning point for the group as it collaborated with noted producer Nick Lowe. In 1986, The Fabulous Thunderbirds reached a commercial peak with the album, “Tuff Enuff”. The single of the same title as well as the singles “Wrap It Up” and “Look At That”, all went top 40.
The band continues to tour extensively, in both the U.S. and Europe and, for one night only, they will rock the Golden Bough Playhouse!
