Rattlesnake Choir was hatched in 2006 when Toronto music veterans John Borra (vox, harmonica, guitar), Sam Ferrara (kitchen sink percussion) and Tony Benattar (Doghouse bass, Dobro) saw a chance to present John’s songs in a rootsy driving combo using only acoustic instruments. With the addition of Treasa Lavasseur (vox, piano and accordion) they were off and running with a weekly Wednesday Night gig at the Paddock. Their debut album “Live Music” was recorded live off the floor in two sessions in spring/summer 2007.
These are videos from concerts where Rattlesnake Choir played, so they may be of other bands that played the concert as well.
