Claude Bernard, Jimmy Smith of the Gourds along with Mark Creaney (gourds sound tech.) and drummer Dave Pennington are The Hard Pans. Put together Dec. 2012. Showcasing songs from past projects(the Tiny's, Slo-Red, Olde World) while building up our sound through a rigorous recording and single releasing schedule. Plans for a long player release in June. Our sound is a loose raw mix of rock, garage, roots, tape hiss, retro technique and uninhibited lyrical wildness.
