Since forming in 1988 in Southern California, Big Sandy and His Fly-Rite Boys have become one of the world’s most beloved Americana/
Roots acts, drawing from the deep musical waters that flow just
beneath the surface of Rock & Roll’s fertile soil. A childhood passion
for Country, Doo-Wop, and Rhythm & Blues 45s led Sandy (born
Robert Williams) to pursue a singing career as a teenager, beginning
a life in music that continues decades later. And as his personal
record collection continues to grow (75,000 and counting), so does
the depth of the musical influences that stream through his
songwriting and singing style. A critically acclaimed tribute to Tex-
Mex hero Freddy Fender, released at the beginning of the 2020
lockdown, points the way forward for Big Sandy and his Fly-Rite Boys
as they continue on a path of musical growth. After nearly 35 years on
the road, and more than two dozen releases to their credit, they
remain key figures on the ever-changing Americana circuit, both on
record and in live appearances.
