Buckethead\u2019s upcoming Father\u2019s Day show is sure to bring out countless guitar geeks as well as fans of his previous shock-rock band, Deli Creeps, a band which Mike Patton (Mr. Bungle, Faith No More) claimed “They’re so good they piss me off.\u201d To date, he has also performed with various artists including (but not limited to) Bootsy Collins, Bill Laswell & Praxis, Les Claypool, Bernie Worrell, Iggy Pop, Serj Tankian, Mike Patton, Viggo Mortensen, Guns N\u2019 Roses, Brain, and many more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who aren\u2019t familiar, the Buckethead character initially wore a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket on his head covered with an orange bumper sticker that read “FUNERAL” in capital letters along with a non-descript white mask in the spirit of the Jason character from the Halloween movie series. More recently, he just wears a plain white bucket along with his trademark expressionless face covering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The avant-garde guitarist Buckethead aka Brian Patrick Carroll has played both as a solo act and with his shock-rock band Deli Creeps all over the Sacramento valley at such varied venues such as The Crest Theatre, Harlow\u2019s and Ace Of Spades. To say that he has a following here would be a great understatement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since taking on his persona, he\u2019s been highly prolific releasing an astounding 700+ studio recordings. 650+ of those are from his Pike music series. Additionally, Buckethead has performed on over 50+ albums. Unlike other rock guitarists, he is adept at playing myriad styles including progressive metal, funk, blues, jazz, bluegrass, and everything and anything else in between. Additionally, Guitar One magazine named him one of the “Top 10 Greatest Guitar Shredders of All Time\u201d while Guitar World claimed Carroll ushered in a new era of virtuosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buckethead’s onstage character is said to have been “raised by chickens” which goes hand in hand with his “mission in life to alert the world to the ongoing chicken holocaust in fast-food joints around the globe. Aside from some killer guitar calisthenics, he is quite adept at using nun chucks and does some seriously hilarious robot-inspired dancing onstage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
