Their sound is akin to that of Two Gallants with more blues and grunge. The Few are prone to set up a small trap kit and practice amp right down the street from the Wired offices for an impromptu set on Market Street.
Juices coming out soon!

Bottom of the Hill
The Ferocious Few have built a mighty legend around town, as much for their fearless guerrilla street jams – ignoring or dropping F-bombs on anyone who suggests that they pack up and move on as for their super-charged take on Howlin’ Wolf/Elmore James/Creedence style blues. As Fernandez himself pointed out, the duo is more accustomed to playing on the sidewalk outside of a Noise Pop show than being up on stage, so how would they fare in the spotlight?
Fernandez started with a simmering solo acoustic number, while drummer Aguilar expressed his sangfroid by leisurely applying lip balm. They had their set on the boil soon enough, with Aguilar’s frantic brushwork on display and Fernandez breaking two strings in the first 3 songs. The qualities that make them so appealing -– their sincere delivery of traditional song forms, and their hold-nothing-back energy -– was a little diluted in a legit setting, but still in abundance. The Few’s first full-length studio album, Juices, comes out this month on Birdman Records.
