Hophead

Jim Tepperman – vocals, mandolin, guitar, bass, clarinet

Originally “Cowpony and the HopHeads” (2010) Hophead has matured over the years (don’t get me wrong, we still have a CowPony in our midst – you have to guess who that may be J but it’s pretty obvious who the hopheads are). KR and PT were members of the (in)famous Sonoma County  RockHounds and KR and JT met through the SF Folk Music community. Primarily an eclectic cover band we explore many genres of popular music – pop, folk, blues, rock, topical, jazz, jugband and just plain silly. We focus on harmonies.  We pay attention to the words we are singing.  We hope you will too.

In addition to his tasty guitar work, Peter is a prolific songwriter. Please check out his many political songs (this is just a small sampling):
