This is a page for the 7 piece musical group The Small Axe (Ensemble) which consists of vocals, guitar, bass, drums, 2 trumpets, electric bassoon and electric horn. We are based out of Arcata California and exist in order to rock.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Interesting experience. Heard some nice comments from listeners after the show. Thanks!
Hope everyone who was there is still alive, healthy and not in jail.
See you on February 3rd (Friday) @noon on the quad (HSU) and that night at CCAT! It’s a campus day for us!
