OCAS is a group of guys from different bands…all friends…all from the OC, that like playing random songs, besides their own. It started as kind of a fill-in gig one night and they had such a blast they decided to do it again when they could. It gives them a chance to stretch out beyond the constraints of their other music.
The list of bands they draw their material from is a little on diverse side. On any given night, they may go with something from the Stones, Little Feat, Delbert McClinton, Procol Harum, Bo Diddly, Hayes Carll, Doors, John Hiatt, Albert Collins, or even an old George Jones song.
The regular line up is: Pete Gamble and Lance White on guitars, Tim Smith on keyboards, Doug Guild on bass, and Larry Duckworth on drums. They are often joined for a song or three by other musician friends that contribute vocals and/or instruments.
They settled on the name Orange County All-Stars, because they’re fashion sense is somewhat influenced by Converse All-Stars.
