The Getaway With

Bughummer, from Savannah, Georgia, enjoyed a five-and-a-half year run from 1992 to 1998. Originally formed by guitarist Jon Proctor at the Savannah College of Art and Design as a quartet, the group underwent different line-up changes and settled as a trio with Proctor, guitarist Keeley Davis (now of Engine Down), and drummer Brian Lackey. Bughummer’s first and only full-length, The Getaway With, was self released by the band in 1998 and quickly went out of print. This album showcases Bughummer's challenging and aggressive approach to making music. The Getaway With is a rough-hewn gem that reveals new facets upon each encounter. They performed with such recognized acts as Fugazi, Karate, Frodus, and Sweep the Leg Johnny.
