For most of the guys in TGB, music runs thick in their blood and is carried back a couple of generations. The Tommy Gallagher band was originally started in April 2004, when Tommy Gallagher and ex-band-mate Steven Lewis split off from a band they were playing in and decided to form their own band with a Texas Country sound. After finding the right connections, they formed a band that blew their own expectations out of the water. Influenced by Texas Country icons like Cross Canadian Ragweed and Pat Green, the band soon had a smokin’ Texas music sound all their own. TGB is Tommy Gallagher, lead vocals, rhythm acoustic guitar; Ryan Duncan, drums and backup vocals; Justin Proffitt, bass guitar; Kit Koop, lead & rhythm guitar and Josh Duggan, lead guitar. Tommy comes to the music business with big boots to fill. Named after his grandfather, Honky Tonk legend Tommy Allen, Gallagher remembers riding in his grandfathers tour bus as a boy. Allen was a published singer/songwriter in Nashville for Cedarwood Publishing Company and toured many of the legendary honky tonks in Texas, playing with country music greats like Lefty Frizzel and Bob Wills. Gallaghers grandfather still plays and writes today in Crystal City, Texas. Within the first three months of their existence, the Tommy Gallagher Band had opened for well-known touring acts like Stoney Larue, Eli Young Band, Max Stalling, Drew Womack, Mike McClure and many others. The Tommy Gallagher Band was a regular fixture on Friday and Saturday nights at Texas Country proving ground, the Golden Light Cantina. By mid-August 2004, with headlining appearances at the Blue Light and the Golden Light under their belts, the band made their debut at Midnight Rodeo in Amarillo, as the main act and have never looked back since. They completed their first C.D. "Never Looking Back" which was released only around the bands home area in early 2006 and more recently a second c.d. called “Always Something” which is to be released in March 2009 by Smith Music Entertainment. The follow-up c.d. was produced by Red Dirt icon Mike McClure, and features some of the best musicians, including McClure himself playing on it.
