Just Plain Big

About Me

Just Plain Big spawned amidst the glamourless circumstance that was grunge in 1992. Original members Matt Hurray, Scott Woods, Miki Janicen and Robert Gurieb set out to breathe life back into a spiritually bereft music scene. They started at a local level, hitting Orange County clubs... shortly before personality issues took root and Gurieb resigned his position as lead guitar/vocalist. A blow to the band, yes, due to both his writing and composing talents, but not exactly a case of love lost. The 3 remaining members reflected deeply on the situation..., for about half of a Pabst Blue Ribbon, then got in touch with the successor. Canbe had worked for years with Woods... the line-up morphed further with the addition of Mike Hardesty to supplement the already powerful vocal line-up, as well as to add color to the stage production...www.justplainbig.com for more
