It's the Mid-West story that didn't get the headlines in the Mid-90's--in a decade that saw Americana Music roar back into the fold thanks to the likes of Uncle Tupelo and their fractions of Son Volt and Wilco, Bay City had the One Trick Ponies at the same exact time in the same groove. While blues was taking flight out of the area by Larry McCray and power class a pop rock by the Verve Pipe, the Ponies were left to wipe off the dust as they were the band that just missed the big time. Jeff Yantz takes us through the era and his songwriting ethos behind a career that keeps him performing to this day.
