The Arrogant Worms 

The Arrogant Worms have a reputation for playing a high energy show with a lively atmosphere and unusual audience participation.  One of Canada’s most popular live acts, trio members Mike McCormick, Trevor Strong and Chris Patterson keep their show clean, and draw influences from a wide variety of musical styles such as folk, acoustic rock, Celtic, reggae, bluegrass, surf music and even Gospel. 

Their newest CD BEIGE was recorded in the fall of 2005 in a barn in rural Ontario.  No animals were harmed.  There are fifteen songs on this album - every one of them crafted with care and love and a bit of cheese. From the opening rock ride of Pressure Washer to the plaintive Go to Sleep Little Leech to the smoothly disturbing I.B.S. (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), the listener gladly receives the sonic wonder that is BEIGE.  The results are breathtaking if one is prone to shortness of breath.  Asthmatics beware.
