Randall Webb is a standard bearer in the Minneapolis/St. Paul acoustic music scene. This singer and guitarist is known for his many years as co-leader of the Front Porch Swingin’ Liquor Pigs. The band is an institution in the legendary music scene of the “West Bank" neighborhood in Minneapolis, carrying on for more than 25 years. Randall Webb’s 2026 release of the single “Pittsburgh” marks the solo recording debut of this journeyman musician.

The Front Porch Swingin’ Liquor Pigs formed in 1999, establishing a dedicated fan base through a years-long residency at The Viking Bar. They released their debut album in 2000, Forget Your Truffles and Dance, followed by two more releases (2004’s Half Cocked and Fully Loaded and 2005’s Last Album). Their hard-charging, fast picking take on roots music placed them among the “Darlings of the West Bank.” Often seen collaborating with luminaries like members of Koerner, Ray & Glover, the band was among the last of the acoustic hold-outs before venues such as The Viking, Palmer’s Bar, and the 400 Bar shuttered their operations. 

Randall’s musical journey extends back to the 1970s and his band Son of Stone. Randall was arrested on stage during their first gig on a possibly trumped up possession charge, setting in motion a musical career that has been colorful and Quixotic. Randall was an original member of the innovative Minneapolis band Sweet Taste of Africa. His many other projects have included the pop-rock cover band Candy and the folky/bluesy Summit Stunt Pilots.
