Two Thumbs are Sean Rock, Justin Morgan and Stephen
Rock. The band's beginning stretches back over a
decade to 1986, to a high school classroom where
Sean Rock and Justin Morgan, bored with class, wrote
their first song together.
Through the years they played separately in numerous
bands while still writing together In 1990 they
formed a writing partnership late one summer night
atop the White River levee at their hometown of
Clarendon.
In 1997 Sean's younger brother Stephen joined in on
the songwriting and has become an integral part of
Two Thumbs.
Their first independent album was released in July,
1998 after which Two Thumbs were voted top independent
band in an international poll of unsigned bands. Live,
all three sing and play guitar with Sean and Stephen
trading off the mandolin. On the eponymously titled
album Justin played the parts written for bass and
drums.
Two Thumbs draw on the rich musical heritage of their
native Arkansas Delta blending blues, rock, country
and Appalacian Folk...obvious in the intricate harmonies.
Two Thumbs performed live on Arkansongs January 31, 1999.
