Blues And Lasers

about

Blues and Lasers is a Vermont based five piece American Delta Blues rock band formed by Scott Tournet (Grace Potter and the Nocturnals) as a side project in 2007. He is joined by his nocturnals bandmates: Benny Yurco on guitar/vocals, Matt Burr on drums. Former bassist, Bryan Dondero of the nocturnals was also the bassist for the band but he left both the bands and was replaced by John Rogone. Their line up also includes another dummer, Steve Sharon. They released their eponymous first EP in 2008 which included 5 songs over a 40 minute period. This was met with praise with one of the critic citing the band as "resurrecting the blues based rock and roll band". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt8jBgtJ6B8&feature=related/ This EP was followed by another critically praised EP titled 'After All We're Only Humans' which included a track with the same name. This EP had a tally of 9 tracks. This too was met with rave reviews with one of the critic saying that, "By having an ear attuned to the greats of the past, B&L gloriously usher classic rock and roll into the next decade. After All We’re Only Human lets the world know that the art of creating an album hasn’t been lost in the age of the 99 cent download. This is the classic rock record of the year.” Although Scott Tournet shies away from being labelled as Classic rock band, it is not hard too see the classic rock influences in them. Scott Tournet credits his influence to the likes of AC/DC, Pink Floyd to name a few, while Steve
