"What’s the Big Idea: A Verde Valley Favorite

Thanks to repeat gigs at State Bar in Old Town Cottonwood, Four Eight Wineworks in Clarkdale, and other Verde Valley venues, What’s the Big Idea of Phoenix is building a strong following of both jazz lovers and those who have a fondness for 90’s-era alternative rock. The formula for the band is to keep it simple: no vocals, no loops or special effects. The magic is all in the unexpected arrangements of familiar tunes from Radiohead, Soundgarden, Pink Floyd and many more."
