Hot Tuna

Hot Tuna is an American band, formed by bassist Jack Casady and guitarist Jorma Kaukonen as an acoustic (and occasionally electric blues) spin-off of Jefferson Airplane. Their early repertoire was derived mainly from the American country blues artists such as Rev. Gary Davis and Arthur Blake (Blind Blake). Casady and Kaukonen added Will Scarlett on harmonica and recorded 1969's Hot Tuna, which was followed by a long-series of well-received albums that played mostly to a small and devoted cult following. The band added a violin player named Papa John Creech and released albums, First Pull Up, Then Pull Down (1971) and Burgers (1972). With some later albums such as America's Choice (1975), Yellow Fever (1975), and Hoppkorv (1976), the band became a power trio with drummer Bob Steeler and turned to heavy rock. They are often considered a forerunner of modern jam bands like Phish. more...
