Dry Spell
The best way to describe the "delta blues" duo
Dry Spell is, "A cowboy bluesman and a
clown-skater-punk-poet walk into a bar. . ."
The cowboy bluesman is of course, Coyote Slim.
The skater-punk-poet is the Rain Man, a Santa
Clara native and neighbor of Coyote Slim. The
two have collaborated musically before during
recording sessions for Urban Res in San Jose.
Both Coyote Slim and the Rain Man are members
of the Bay Area American Indian community and
Slim, in particular, is often seen at local pow
wows. Their blues duo appeared on the "scene"
during Open Mic nights at Barefoot Coffee in
Santa Clara in the fall of 2010. Dry Spell also
appears as a trio, with the addition of the infamous
Jordan K on bass guitar.
Dry Spell's goal is not to "make it big" but just
have fun playing old-fashioned Delta blues. In an
area dominated by blues bands of the "West Coast
style" (a categorization despised by Coyote Slim),
Dry Spell sticks out like a wolf in a pack of poodles.
