Spider Bags

Specializing in rollicking but slightly shambolic tales of hard living and questionable behavior, the Spider Bags were first formed in New Jersey by guitarist and vocalist Dan McGee and bassist and guitarist Gregg Levy. The first album from the Spider Bags, A Celebration of Hunger, appeared in 2007, followed by Goodbye Cruel World, Hello Crueler World in 2009. Rock Forbes became the Spider Bags' steady drummer during the touring that followed the second album's release, and McGee, Levy, and Forbes were the core band for the third Spider Bags album, Shake My Head. ~ Mark Deming
