Style

edit

Spafford's sound is the product of the backgrounds and influences of the different songwriters and musicians in the band.[1] The band uses an improvisational style to transition within and between the songs in their sets of live music,[2] which sometimes include diverse covers performed in unique and improvisational styles.[3] Spafford tours across the U.S., and each of their shows features a different setlist and approach to the songs in their catalogue of original music.[4] The band often provides live streams and access to recordings of its shows.[5]

History

edit

Brian Moss and Jordan Fairless are the founding members of Spafford. In 2008 they played open mic nights at Coyote Joe's, a venue in Prescott, Arizona. At the time, Moss played guitar and Fairless played percussion. In 2010, Mike Kreidel (2010-2011) became Spafford's drummer, and Fairless, a multi-instrumentalist, assumed the bass guitar. The first keyboard player was Jonathan Hust (2010-2011).[6] In 2011, Andrew "Red" Johnson (keys/vocals) and Nick Tkachyk joined Spafford. Tkachyk took a break in 2017, and Cameron Laforest became Spafford's drummer,[7] in place of Tkachyk until his return in early 2019. Johnson announced his departure from the band in fall 2022 after vetting Schechtman as his replacement.[8] Through their tours, archives, and live video recordings, Spafford has established a fan base of "Spaffnerds" who travel to see the band and maintain an online community surrounding its shows.[9]

Members

edit

Brian Moss was born on February 22, 1985, in River Vale, New Jersey. He started writing music when he was 12 years old.[10] Brian moved to Arizona in his twenties and played in several bands in Phoenix and in Prescott before he met Jordan Fairless in 2008 and went on to develop Spafford shortly thereafter.

Jordan Christopher Fairless was born on September 1, 1985. Raised in a musical family in Nashville, Tennessee, Jordan is a multi-instrumentalist. He was more a drummer than a bassist when he and Brian first met, and he focused on the bass guitar thereafter.[11] Jordan served as a sound engineer at Prescott's Green Room during Spafford's early years.

Nick Tkachyk was born February 24, 1989, in Tucson, Arizona. Nick has been a drummer since birth and would arrange pots and pans to drum on before receiving his first drum kit. His first musical endeavor was a ska outfit in high school. In addition to playing drums, Nick also creates electronic music. Nick took a hiatus from Spafford from 2017 - 2019, being replaced by Cameron LaForest, before rejoining the group for Jazz Festival in New Orleans, LA.[12]

Chuck "Spafford" Johnson was born on June 23, 1985. He is originally from Denver, Colorado. Chuck was Spafford's original lighting designer, co-lyricist, and namesake.[13] Chuck's lighting design set the stage for Spafford's performances in their early tours. Chuck continues to guide both the band's aesthetic and its musical direction.

Andrew "Red" Johnson was born on December 2, 1980. He hails from Belvidere, Illinois, and moved to Phoenix in 2001. Red was a pianist, vocalist, and keyboard player in the Phoenix music scene before he joined Spafford for his first show at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas in 2011.[14]

On November 21, 2022, Andrew "Red" Johnson announced his intention to leave Spafford, citing the desire to spend more time with family. His last show with Spafford was December 31st of that year. Cory Schechtman was named a permanent replacement.[15]

In winter 2017, Spafford toured with Umphrey's McGee for over a dozen shows.[30][31] They also headlined their own tour simultaneously.[32] Spafford joined Umphrey's McGee again to play five shows for the second leg of their summer 2018 tour.[33]

In winter 2018, Spafford kicked off the For Amusement Only tour with 17 shows across the Northeast, Midwest, and Southeast United States.[34] Spafford also toured from September to November 2017 and returned to their home base in Phoenix, Arizona to play a three-night, sold-out New Year's Eve run at the Crescent Ballroom.[35] The fall tour included more than 30 dates in over 20 states across the U.S.[36]

On the 2018 schedule for Spafford was a continuation of the For Amusement Only tour[9] to promote their third studio album, which follows Abaculus: An Improvisational Experience (2017)[37] and Spafford (2012).

The tour set the band to cover ground starting in Minnesota, to New York, Florida, and Colorado, out to Washington, and ending in California. The locations are many venues they had played in the prior year; however, across the states the band announced many debuts in venues much larger than those than in 2018.

Similarly, graduating from the 625-person Terminal West to the 1,000-person Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Georgia.
