Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index The Strawmen are an independent band from Sacramento, California, featuring guitarist David Leonhardt, bassist Mark Harmon and Bill Harmon. The Strawment recorded an independent self titled album, and went on to be "absorbed" by The 77s. Sevens lead singer Mike Roe and drummer Aaron Smith were looking for a new guitarist and bassist for the band and turned to David Leonhardt and Mark Harmon. Although The Strawmen never played a live concert, the indie release sheds a great deal of light on the musical metamorphosis that changed The 77s from a slick but edgy euro-flavored mod-rock band into whatever they are now. Many of the songs originally recorded by the Strawmen went on to be rerecorded on 77s albums. This article is from Wikipedia.
