Biography

The Atlanta-based rockabilly combo Cigar Shop Indians formed in 1993 following the breakup of frontman Ben Friedman’s previous band, the choice rockers IBM. After enlisting Jim “Low Notice” Lavender on acoustic guitar, Keith Perissi on bass, and Francis “Fast Pedal” Ferran on drums, the music group grew quickly from an underground feeling to one from the Atlanta golf club scene’s most widely used acts. After liberating a cassette on an area label in 1994, the Cigar Shop Indians produced their formal bow having a 1995 self-titled LP.
