I’m still digitizing reel-to-reel tapes of my eldest brother Mark (1951 – 1980), setting the old grand piano on fire back in ’69. Getting parts of a Chopin sonata stuck in your head is a hell of a lot better than having some portion of “The Night Chicago Died” on infinite repeat. biggreenband.com

How did you spend your summer? The simple fact that we ask is evidence of our transgressive nature as a band from the alternative rock era. Just look at this image from 1992 – what a bunch of fuckers. biggreenband.com

We always go back to writing topical songs. Not sure why. Maybe it's got something to do with our home environment. biggreenband.com

I interrupt this guitar lesson for a brief update: I am authorized by Big Green's counsel to announce that our new single, Against It, will be released on June 1. Something to look forward to, am I right? Express your joy! biggreenband.com/2026/05/t-mi...

Okay, let me try this again ... Our plan is to cherry pick the best Ned Trek numbers for an album and collect the rest in a volume 2 at some point, or just put out as a “pick your adventure” database. Either way, less work for mother. We’re lazy-ass mofos, let’s face it. biggreenband.com

New Home (Old Band): After heated discussion, we’re boxing up all of our baubles, winding up all of our furniture in bubble-wrap, and backing the U-Haul up to the front stoop of our long-running blog. Time to load it in and pack it off to our new digs at www.biggreenband.com

Well, our site went down for a few weeks, but now it's back. Stupid internets!

Funny thing about our latest album, In Retrograde, is that it’s doing better in The Philippines than pretty much anywhere else. Who’s number 2 in the Big Green fan club? Indonesia, that’s who. Could have knocked me over with a feather when they told me that. www.big-green.net/bg/2025/09/w...

Reviewer and listener comments, as they say, are where the rubber meets the road. And with an album like In Retrograde, they're leaving skid marks. Check out the ones we're musing over. www.big-green.net/bg/2025/06/w...

“There’s a lot of pain and there’s a lot of angst. I’m not really sure a lot of that was consciously put into the songs,” Matt Perry said about the lyric writing process. “You end up revealing things that you didn’t think you were going to reveal.” - NYS Music nysmusic.com/2025/05/29/b...

"In Retrograde takes an overall turn away from Big Green's usual ironic and humorous writing and steps into a more sentimental territory." - Jenna Sents, NYS Music nysmusic.com/2025/05/29/b...

We don't get a lot of inquiries here at Big Green, but if we did, I'm sure they would center on our promised new album. Some would be about lettuce coupons. Beware, though - responses may be generated by AI (an idiot). www.big-green.net/bg/2025/01/w...

As it happens, this is a milestone holiday season for your friends at Big Green. Our first album, 2000 Years To Christmas, was released 25 years ago this year. That’s right, it is now officially 1,975 years to Christmas, depending on which way you’re counting. Tempus fugit, am I right?
