\nBecause they are probably the best New Year'\;s Eve band on the planet\, and they are so \;so amazingly fun\, we'\;re bringing them back for a third year. \;
\nSo if you'\;re lookin'\; for the party of parties to end 2017\, this is the band and the place to do it. \;
\nNo one really gets you up and going like Roomful of Blues!
\n
\nAt 47-years-old\, New England&rsquo\;s Roomful of Blues has been around even longer than Alligator Records. For all that time\, they&rsquo\;ve celebrated jump blues\, R&\;B and early rock &lsquo\;n&rsquo\; roll music of the horn-powered golden era of the late 1940s and early 1950s. Inspired by the spirit of the groundbreaking bands of the post-World War II decade\, they breath new life into vintage songs\, infusing them with boundless energy and fiery\, swinging solos and vocals. \;
\nFor the last two decades\, Roomful has been led by \;Chris Vachon\, one of the most underrated guitarists in the blues. For 40 years\, their hard-charging horn section has been sparked by \;Rich Lataille \;on tenor and alto sax. Energizing the band since 2010 is their terrific vocalist\, \;Phil Pemberton. Phil&rsquo\;s performances showcase his flamboyant\, multi-octave voice\, fun-loving attitude and his deep understanding of the era when jumping blues bands were fronted by huge-voiced singers like Roy Brown\, Wynonie Harris and Big Joe. They are universally referred to as the "\;best little big band in America."\;
\n
\n"\;Aim the beat at their feet!"\; is the tireless maxim that expresses the character and guiding principle of Roomful of Blues.
