Backwater was an American jazz fusion band formed in Mobile, Alabama, that was active in the 1970s. The group was founded by Robby Catlin and Scott Pettersen, with Larry Hardin and Trippe Thomason completing the lineup. The quartet formed in 1975, playing clubs and working as session musicians in Birmingham, Alabama. The group's first album, Backwater (1976), sold well throughout the Southeast and received radio airplay, leading to touring with B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, and Emmylou Harris. Lineup changes plagued the band for much of the rest of their career. Pettersen, Catlin, and Tom and Myra Woodruff produced one more album (North of the Mason-Dixon and the Heart of Dixie in 1978) before breaking up as the decade ended. The band's original members reunited for a concert in 1997.
