Bis-Quits

The Bis-Quits were a roots rock band from Nashville, Tennessee, active in the 1990s. Its members were Will Kimbrough, Tommy Womack, Mike Grimes (bass), and Tommy Meyer (drums).[1] Womack has described the band's style as "kinda like NRBQ meets the Replacements.”[2] The band released only one, self-titled album on Oh Boy Records in 1993. It received a four-star (out of five) rating from AllMusic[3] and a B+ from Entertainment Weekly.[4] It was particularly noted for its song "Yo Yo Ma", which was described by No Depression as "a Chuck Berry-by-way-of-Dan Baird rocker".[2]
