About Me

What is the essencethat is"Big Meat"? The signature sound that originates from four close friends can only be described as Rock n Roll.Big Meat’s music is surging energy, circulating through soulful, subconscious lines of creativity. Their effort is relentless on stage and off and reaches out with an experienced exploratory philosophy in the form of rock ‘n roll, raw funk, trance, disco, jazz, and bluegrass with occasional Latin and classical tinges.Big Meat is an electric live act. The foursome jives with their audience and smiles with every note. Perhaps they’ll play the spoons, do a small choreographed dance or booty shake, or wear humorous apparel such as a large hot dog hat or afro wig. The first time Big Meat headlined Orlando’s Hard Rock Live, the drummer wore an entire “Burger King” costume. At another headlining show, the New Years Fest, “Camp Jam ‘06,” Big Meat’s guitarists did a choreographed kung fu battle, which segued out of the song, “Kung Fu Fighting”. At a Halloween festival in ’06, Big Meat dressed as Mario Brother’s characters, and played 9 theme songs from the game series throughout their set. The band keeps you guessing. Their antics are sporadic, but Big Meat can always be counted on to play music that saturates your ears with unforgettable flavor.
