Don Forbes and Reckless' original music is a blend of traditional rock with country overtones…. somewhere between Tom Petty and Steve Earle.  Reckless is a blend of outstanding north bay musicians: Sean Allen, lead guitar and vocals, Paul Olguin, bass, Gabe Ford, drums, Pamela Joyce B/G vocals and mandolin, and often, Bob McBain, keyboards. Forbes has two CDs out and the band is currently recording music for a 3rd project. Stay tuned!

​

Their live shows are all about getting folks up and dancing. They combine the original music with numerous covers of artists like Warren Zevon, Rodney Crowell, Reckless Kelly, Jackson Browne, and Tom Petty!
