(text taken from the Rick Frost & Jen Sherman -
LIVE! press kit) A collection of
songs performed live - no bass, no drums, and no studio frills. The CD, is in effect, like
being present at one of Rick and Jen's performances.
Rick Frost and Jen Sherman joined forces in 1995. They
kicked off their musical adventure utilizing two used guitars and a Park practice amp. Six
years later, they still use two used guitars and a Park practice amp. The only significant
changes have been that their following has increased dramatically and that the Park amp
has developed a short that leaves it inclined to tune in errant radio signals.
Referring to themselves as the "low-budget
band", Frost and Sherman have displayed a penchant for appearing at benefits - often
turning down gigs for pay, in order to play for free. Asked, "Why?" Rick Frost
explains, "Jen and I are in total agreement about the money thing. Money is, at
best, a necessary evil, however, it is not, nor can it ever be, our first priority. Our
first priority, or moral obligation if you prefer, is to provide food for thought, and to
help out where we can."
The list of benefit appearances by Frost and Sherman
serves to support the validity of their stated philosophy. Their appearances have
included: Benefit for Brain Tumor Research, Roaring Brook Nature Center, Canton, CT;
Benefit for Geoffrey Cameron (an infant heart surgery patient); Benefit for Leeway, a New
Haven, CT based AIDS hospice; Benefit for WPKN; Citizens Action Network, March on
Millstone, Waterford, CT; Citizens Action Network, March on Yankee Power, Brattleboro, VT;
Benefit for Area Wildlife Associations Telethon, Haddam, CT; and Benefit for AIDS
Research, Friends Coffee House, Westbrook, CT.
In addition to benefits, Frost and Sherman have been
regular performers at a host of New England Coffee Houses and Clubs; they have performed
live on Central CT State College's and Wesylan University's FM stations; appeared at New
Haven's State Street Festival; were recently voted giglist.com's Band of the Month; and
perform regularly at The Stony Creek Puppet Theater.
