  the 77's
In many ways, the 77's have been caught in the middle, the quintessential "underground band," seemingly destined to perennially set trends without ever being trendy.
A perfect follow-up to their 1992 self-titled release, Drowning is as an intense and provocative record as any that will be released for any market this year, and one that cannot be ignored by either Christian or mainstream radio.
For Roe, the 77's brutal honesty and intensity are essential to the mission of the band, an intent that he insists is first and foremost a ministry, albeit one not normally thought to fit into most "Christian" radio formats.

 A Golden Field of Radioactive Crows - a Review of The Phantom Tollbooth
In terms of their potential as a profitable mainstream rock band, the most significant watermark in the 77’s career would have to be the release of the band's self-titled album.
On that note, Galaxy 21 Music is billing the 77's as "the only boy band that matters" and claims the new album is "scorching summertime rock and roll from the heroes of modern rock." A bit tongue in cheek, to be sure, yet with a ring of truth.
The 77's are now in their sixteenth year, and what a joy it is to see them refusing to rest on their laurels.

 77s Concert Review (5/94)
I was really psyched to hear the 77s were finally coming to Austin - the drive to Dallas (4 hours) gets old quickly.
By now even the mosh pit has calmed down - lots of folk are still rocking, but lots of them are just standing there with their mouths open, too.
In typical 77s style, they topped even that by out-Zepping Zepplin, with a stop-n-go version of "a little gospel song", Nobody's Fault But Mine, which began with a great guitar duet, and wandered all over the place in ways Page and Plant could only dream about.

The 77s have toured extensively in the last few years and 2001 will again see the Sevens on the road and at most of the major summer festivals.
And weaving underneath all of that sun and fun madness are the usual 77s lyrics, brimming with the kind of spiritual angst, conflict, challenge and resolve that have made the 77s the heroes of modern rock for over 16 years.

When asked about the title, a smiling Roe indicated, "The word means a lot of things to us.
It's the way we say goodbye out here (in California); and it's a word to which we've never been a stranger." "Late" is an unexpected, surprise release that is the result of Family Bookstore's desire to reintroduce the 77s to their market.
The release will feature both 77s and Michael Roe works from the past 5 years.

Fans and friends of the 77s (who go all the way back to 1984) will know exactly what I’m talking about upon hearing their first full-length in several years, A Golden Field Of Radioactive Crows.
At one point I touted the 77s as the “most under-appreciated band in rock music,” a sentiment that still rings true when discussing the majority of their discography.
At their best the 77s played charming pop music fashioned in the shadows of Brian Wilson under the red-hot California sun.

 Moments of Meditation/The 77s - Daydream - A Review by The Phantom Tollbooth
This excursion into jazz shouldn't surprise fans of the 77s-- several past songs ("Alone Together," "Flowers in the Sand") have been unashamedly jazz-influenced, and Roe has acknowledged both in words and in solo albums his affections for the genre.
Harmon wrote or co-wrote five of them, and the opening and closing tracks, "Sleepwalk" and "Sleepwalk (Slight Return)" are easily-recognizable hula dance songs.
Harmon proves himself to be a more-than-competent writer (and guitarist, keyboardist, and percussionist, for that matter), as his compositions "Amber Waves" and "Dancing Out on the Moonlit Nile" are two of the most enjoyable tracks on the album.

The 77s are also gearing up for a fall tour, sponsored by World Vision.
The 77s are still at it after almost 20 years, with no signs of letting up…Crows may not be homogenized and packaged the same as many radio-friendly projects, but that's part of what makes it so good." Christian Retailing
Remember, Daniel Amos is touring with the 77s on the Legends package, so this band will be seen and heard by an enormous amount of people in advance of the album's release.

 MichaelRoe.com - Michael Roe Reviews
Following in the footsteps of Phil Keaggy's Music to Paint By series, Michael Roe and Mark Harmon of the seminal Christian rock band The 77s have signed a multi-album deal with Unison Music.
Something interesting about Daydream is the fact that Roe, generally thought of as the creative centre of the 77s, participated in the writing of only three of the album's eleven songs.
Daydream is a must-have for fans of the 77s, as well as for anyone who finds their day too hectic and just needs time to relax.

Island was so caught off-guard by that album's huge sales and the pandemonium that broke out over U2 that they left almost every other band in their lineup to wither, including The 77s.
The 77's music (with soundclips from every song of every album) can be found at www.77s.com.
Michael Roe, the sole remaining member from the band's 1979 founding (as Scratch Band), is an amazing individual with guitar, vocal, and writing prowess that continues to blow me away ever since I discovered them in the early '90s.
