FLAMIN’ GROOVIES
+ special guests
The Flamin’ Groovies story goes all the way back to 1965 when the band began as The Chosen Few in their hometown of San Francisco, California.
After a name change and a self-released 10 inch album called Sneakers, which sold amazingly well, the band caught the attention of Columbia Records who signed them up and sent them into the studio with a big budget to record their first real album, Supersnazz.
Their next two albums were on Kama Sutra Records (home of their heroes, The Lovin’ Spoonful): Flamingo, and the now revered classic Teenage Head.
In 1976 they signed to Sire Records, who released three true gems of power pop: Shake Some Action, Flamin’ Groovies Now, and Jumpin’ In The Night.
