Reverend Ernest T. McKeage, Karen Lee Larson Paul Budin, Matt Quirk, Alton Patches
The Last Straw was perhaps one of Karen's favorite all-time Illinois bands EVER! Each member made such a unique contribution, and together they created a sound that ranged from "crabgrass" to country-punk.
More things about members of The Last Straw:
The Daily Illini wrote a review about them.
Alton Patches previously played in Big Daddy Sun.
In the early 80's, Tim McKeage and Paul Budin played in The Outnumbered with Jon Ginoli of Pansy Division.
Paul was a major influence on Karen's music career. In 1989, he bought her 3 songs in a recording studio as a Christmas present. The collaboration between Karen and the Last Straw was influential, to say the least.
