About the Author
Dan Abbott and Corbett Redford grew up in the suburban wasteland of Pinole, CA (or haven’t grown up at all, depending on who you ask) and became intimately familiar with stripmall food service jobs there. Since 1995 they have been making music and trouble as the satiric folk-rock duo Bobby Joe Ebola and the
Children MacNuggits, which has ruined otherwise pleasant evenings for thousands of unsuspecting concertgoers. The band tours the world often and has possibly become a little too used to the smell of one another. Their newest record, Trainwreck To Narnia, is available through Rooftop Comedy Productions. The two somehow manage to afford to live in the San
Francisco Bay Area.
