About Me

Beckett and Friends is a band from Cleveland, Ohio. They got together in 1998, and have been awing audiences ever since. Initial line up included Peach, BoBo and Brown Bear, but has included many more, like Pigsfeet, Tide Box, and Sentient Italian Soda. Now the group is largely a time machine. Mainly active in Cleveland, they've also played quite a few shows in the Bay area, often with the assistance of Finky Binks.

Somehow my shirt is off in half of these photos up here. I had no idea we were such a tough guy band.

Beckett and Friends broke up. Go listen to ICUP, has some former members of Beckett and Friends

Blackie moved back in with me, it's only a matter of time til we start jammin again.

Federico joined the band cause I didn't know how to say Beckett and Friends is done in Italian. He is also now the European drummer for ICUP
