About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !
Smokewaggin formed 4 years ago in a small studio behind a music store in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. Original drummer Ryan Moore (of civilized animal fame) called a few of his friends for just another jam session. The group included Pete Rhoads, brothers James and Clay Ownbey,Kelly Moore, and original bassist Jake Medlock (guitar player at the time). A couple months later, the group known as Captain Clark and the Teenage Wang booked their first gig. This was the only gig that Ryan played with the band, and his younger, hard rocking brother Kelly took over on the drums.After a couple years under the Captain Clark name, the 5 piece group changed their name to Smokewaggin. After playing around the Post Falls/Coeur D'Alene area, and cumulating with a show at Post Falls Days, and a 5 song demo CD, Chris Rhodes joined the band as the new bass player, and the classic rock covering, southern rock based band changed directions.After a short 2 year layoff, original bassist Jake Medlock rejoined the band and Smokewaggin went back to it's roots to the classic rock covering, southern rock based band with a twist.Smokewaggin now plays a unique blend of original music, mixed in with covers from 4 decades. They offer a little something from all genres, and play a wide array of up tempo music. From dance to metal, classic rock to modern hard rock, and everything in the middle, Smokewaggin offers hard rocking tunes with energy and great workings with any type of crowd!!
