When G. Love opened for Jack Johnson on a solo acoustic tour, he wanted to get his intimate coffee shop/corner bar show to translate to much larger audiences.
“Even though I have always been a purist with my solo show, I decided to soup up my rig for the bigger shows. I got in touch with a guy named Pete Farmer who owns a company called Farmer Foot Drums. Pete makes a variety of foot drums geared up for the solo performer and one-man band. He makes a variety of smaller kick drums and percussion pedals. Out of his arsenal, I’ve added a stomp box to turn my foot stomp into a low kick sound as well as a tambourine pedal. I can get a real rhythmic train going and it’s effective, especially with the faster-tempo songs. To me there’s nothing better than a wood soled shoe stomping on a hard wood floor but for the big stage, these Farmer Foot Drums will have you sounding big. So, the moral of the story is, whether you’ve got a slamming band or not, hone that craft of performing solo, it will show you’re the real deal.”
