Just some of our cover songs...
A Rocker Foot Clutch is an old style Harley-Davidson clutch assembly.ROCKIN' FOOT CLUTCH is a classic to current, and original power pop rock power trio from Nashville.
We are not a biker band, however, we love to play for Bikers as well as other cool people.
We're pretty, but we can't help that.Brief History
Long time ago in a beer bar far away there played a band without a name. Mudflap, the bass player, walked up to the mike and said: Hello, we're the Little Bastards. And so there was a band with a name, such as it was.Then Mudflap fired the guitar player and hired Jim (Spyder) Hearn to play lead guitar and do some singing.
We played such amazing shows as [my mothers den] and don't forget the sold out show, [Murf's tire repair and flower shop grand opening]
but alas,
Mudflap thus retired and Spyder created Rockin’ Foot Clutch... the rest is historyRON PRESLEY
Ron's (Drummer, Percussionist, Lead Vocals) been with me since the beginning... we've had 9 great years creating great rock music... Ron must be about the best damn drummer there is... His singing voice also keeps the ladies in a spell... In fact, I'm sooo tired of the girls always saying stuff like "Oooooh, He's so cute...Is he single? Do you think he'll call me? BLAH BLAH BLAH... What am I, chopped liver? Oh well, we all love himanyway... Come see for yourself..JIM {Spyder] HEARN
Jim Hearn lives in a strange world where art is normal and life is abstract. Sometimes speaking and saw dust comes out, occassionally building strange trains of thought, ever changing, Mobius Strip. Jim Hearn is a lead vocalist, lead guitarist and song writer. "For pop rock stuff, I use my Les Paul Black Beauty Custom named 'Wise Guy' (rebuilt and created by my good friend Doug Holt) or my Strat, and Marshall amps, really loud. Looking forward to playing with the band "Rockin' Foot Clutch" again. Anthony Hood -Bass Guitar and Ron Presley- Drums and Lead Vocals. We were together for eight years, off a year and a half, now back together. Whooo hooo! A different thing, I play Visual Sound solo in 4 channel stereo. Visual Sound is all improv. Accidental art. Art for the sake of sanity. It's a Steinberger guitar through a Roland GR16 guitar processor with some custom tones taking me up to 6 months to create; also my DigiTech GNX workstation; directly into a PA setup that allows me 2 simultaneous stereo paths (I surround the audience with a 2 stereo pseudo-surround speaker array) and blended with a switching box; and I use 3 volume pedals to add or subtract at will."Founder of RFC, Jim, (loud but with great tone, electric/ acoustic Guitarist, Lead Voice, Token Hippie with black glasses), is a former gun-for-hire for folks like John Lee Hooker, Elvin Bishop, Hank Thompson, David Frazell, John Anderson, T. Graham Brown, Peaches and Herb, Billy Paul among many more and warmed up bands like Iron Butterfly, Spirit, Steppenwolf, to name a few...Jim always sounds like a cd thanks to state of the art technology and 32 years of practice, and a custom built Les Paul Custom {built by Doug Holt]. Jim gets no chicks, but people like him and buy him beer. Locally Jim was involved with bands like Well Red, Justus, Big Dog and the Woofers, Valerie Reynolds and the Bad Cactus Blues Band and Max Vague and his own VISUAL SOUND. Jim has played in 8 countries and Vegas and Palm Springs.ANTHONY HOOD
The evil Sam Elliott and dancer of fancy latin moves, he also plays Bass guitar. He's been with RFC 5 and one half years, but who's counting... Anthonys been in such huge bands as THE GOOBER SMOOCHERS AND PANKY AND THE CHEEKY SPANK BAND AND GREEN GIZZARD, JUST TO NAME A FEW...
AND HE’S FAMOUS IN MANY RHELMS OF HIS OWN MIND. He's the IN YOUR FACE member of the band... and what chicks Ronny don't get, Anthony does... man, there ain't no justice.
ahhh well.They are all ready for the road, whether regional or overseas. Their specialty is including the audience all throughout the show with humor and great rock music. You must see them live to appreciate the energy of the show. They play a great variety of cover and original tunes, the covers being done Rockin' Foot Clutch style. They take requests. They have TV footage running on channel CAT 19 (Speer Presents) and a really funny commercial that ran on Comcast on Comcast. RFC is the Tennessee state band for the biker rights group C.M.T. abate, play shows for FM 105.9 The Rock, HOG and a whole lot of assorted Harley events on flatbed trailers all over the state... They are available for frats to fairs to concerts to small sool places, warm up larger acts and even headline. Their equiptment list [too large to list] can cover shows from 50 to 4000 people... They have lights, too.
