Biography

As an unlikely rock trio in the form of a New York City guitarist and vocalist (Barbara Keith aka mom), a former television sitcom writer-turned-drummer (Doug Tibbles aka dad), and a bassist playing since the age of 11 (John Tibbles aka son), the Stone Coyotes have paved an esoteric musical path from New York City to Los Angeles all the way to Western Massachusetts in their quest for rock & roll respectability. Eschewing major-label distribution, the band released their initial recording, Church of the Falling Rain, through an exclusive agreement with Amazon.com and caught the ear of Jackie Brown/Get Shorty novelist Elmore Leonard. Leonard then appeared with the Stone Coyotes in a tour of reading/music shows and partnered with the band to include their music in his next film. Their follow-up, Situation Out of Control, was released through Red Cat Records in the summer of 2000. Enjoying their time on the label and its non-corporate approach, Ride Away from the World became their second release on the Massachusetts label. ~ Roxanne Blanford, Rovi

Background

Barbara Keith founded the family-revolved band in Massachusetts with her family. Doug Tibbles is her husband, and John Tibbles is their stepson.[1] Barbara Keith is mainly the guitarist, and also writes most of their songs. Doug started playing drums for the band shortly before the trio was formed, when Keith was signed with Warner Brothers. John learned to play the bass guitar at eleven and started playing in the band when he was eighteen.[2]

Be Cool

Be Cool is a New York Times bestselling crime novel written by Elmore Leonard.[3] The novel is now a major motion picture, and was the sequel to the book Get Shorty. Barbara Keith was a major influence to this novel, especially its plot. The song Odessa was written for the book.[4] Five of her songs are mentioned in the actual text.[5]
