Cliff Wagner & The Old #7
Cliff Wagner & The Old #7 has played all over Southern California, Nevada, and Arizona at bluegrass festivals such as Huck Finn and Summergrass. If Bill Monroe had started a band with Muddy Waters and Levon Helm, this is what it would sound like.
In the fall of 2008, Cliff submitted a video of the band to the producers of "American Idol" as an audition for a new show they were starting called "The Next Great American Band." The Old #7 was chosen out of 8,000 bands to appear with the top 12 bands, as the 7th runner up on the show. The show's panel of judges enjoyed the band's musicianship, but insisted that a "bluegrass" band would not be accepted by the general public and be voted off immediately. To everyone's surprise Cliff Wagner & The Old #7 was on the show for six weeks playing for over 10 million people every week. Which just goes to show you that after over 20 years of performing, with just a couple of months the television exposure, Cliff Wagner & The Old #7 has gone from "industry secret" to "national act!" Cliff and the band are working on becoming "Overnight Sensations!!!"
