BIO:

The Big Motif is a young band with a surprising amount of experience under their belts. The group ranges from 18-21 years of age, yet founding members Tony Pacello, Hunter Roberts and Jeff Jani have been playing together for over 5 years. Originally called The Runnin' Wild Band, these guys hooked up by winning a Fox Radio / Lewis and Floorwax on-air competition for the best young musicians in Colorado. During the RWB 5 year run, they got the chance to play hundreds of shows inside and outside of Colorado, including sharing the stage with CCR, Joe Bonamassa, and Johnny Winter.

"The Big Motif exudes confidence, as well they should, this young band has the chops and the groove and the patience to make every song they do become a masterpiece. Listen and you will know that they are for real." - Jay Bianchi, Quixotes

 

"...this first EP by the up and coming four-piece shows that the young group has set the bar for themselves very high indeed...the result is polished and slick, but raw and loose enough to still be fun." - Marquee Magazine

In September 2009 after contemplating a name change, the band came up with The Big Motif and added a sax/flute/multi-instrumentalist by the name of Sam Crowe to the lineup. The band then enlisted Colorado guitar-man and respected producer Dave Beegle to help them with a professional recorded EP, and 6 months later, the self-titled debut recording is released.
