He arrived on the Charleston music scene in 2007, playing with bands such as No Exit Strategy and The COOL.
Tom Kirkpatrick - Guitars, Keyboards and Lead Vocals
Tom began his professional music career in college as a guitarist and vocalist for the band Crossfire. He went on to play with Goldsmith (who did a short stint as Bo Diddley’s backup band and warmup band for the Tams) and Back of My Hand before answering a Craigslist ad to join The Strumdogs. Because, at that time there were three guitarists, Tom added keyboards and slide to his repertoire in order to add variety and range to the band‘s song list.
Tex Curtis - Drums and Lead Vocals
Tex originally hails from Savannah Ga. He and a childhood friend met, became inseparable, and formed the band Budda and later created a more well-known band called Choice. Choice toured the East Coast for 8 years. More recently, Tex and a fellow vocalist formed St. Bryan's Taxi, which was locally known for their Alternative music style. In the fall of 2012, Tex received word that an up and coming band needed a drummer. Tex decided to join The Strumdogs. “Becoming a part of The Strumdogs was definitely one of the best musical decisions I have made in years" he was quoted as saying.
Ethan Aneshansley - Guitar and Background Vocals
Ethan Aneshansley shares lead and rhythm guitar duties in the Strumdogs. Originally from Brooklyn, New York, Ethan is a veteran of numerous NY, Boston and Charleston touring bands as well as a graduate of the Berklee College of Music.

When not performing, Ethan can be found searching Charleston for the latest micro-brew creations and the perfect "NY Style" pizza.
