New Blues Revolution Headline NAMM Concert Tonight At Hilton Anaheim

New Blues Revolution headline a midnight NAMM 2018 concert tonight (Wednesday, January 24) at the Hilton Anaheim, 777 West Convention Way. Tickets/Info: (562) 762-8317.

This marks the fifth time the Long Beach-based "New Blues" group has performed on an official NAMM stage, this year headlining the Kickoff Party on NAMM's Hilton stage, regarded as the number one NAMM 'Bar Stage."

Following NAMM, NBR performs three February Southern California area shows (see Itinerary, below) before their headlining bow at New Blues Festival V in Long Beach this Labor Day weekend, September 1 and 2.

Imagine a gifted young singer/pianist growing up on the coast of Spain honing his chops throughout the clubs of Valencia. Halfway around the world, imagine a young guitarist growing up in Los Angeles, playing rhythm guitar for members of the Yardbirds and Paul Butterfield Blues band at the age of 12.

Both would continue to explore their "Blues Journey" and go on to play many of the most famous venues in the world. Not long ago, their paths and collective pasts would collide together in the creation and concept of the "New Blues Revolution".

Meet Bill Grisolia: Singer and Front man extraordinaire, described as a "Bigger than Life Personality" and yet a "Playful Tiger" of a Force. Meet Guitarist Chap Cooper, lauded as one the "last great blues guitarists of our time", a "True Original". Both Songwriters. Now imagine an inspiring yet compelling journey with something unknown yet something you have always known. Meet the New Blues Revolution.

The band leads the vanguard of the new blues movement in the U.S. (think Black Keys, White Stripes, Joe Bonamassa and John Mayer). They play festivals, concerts and top night clubs in the US and internationally. New Blues Revolution headlined the official 2018 NAMM kick-off party at the Hilton Hotel in Anaheim. In 2017, they were asked to play Mexico (the Baja Blues Festival), Kern River Rock N Blues Festival, and New Blues Festival in Los Angeles. They returned for the fourth time to play an official NAMM stage. They have opened for a diverse range of music legends including Macy Gray, Leon Russell, Canned Heat, Rick Derringer, David Lindley, Starship, The Tubes, Coco Montoya, Dick Dale, David Lindley and Kathy Segal-Garcia.

Forging a unique, distinctive style featuring Bill Grisolia's vocals and piano and Chap Cooper's guitar, the band brings exciting showmanship to a mix of high-energy songs - deep, modern, rocky but soulful. A favorite of critics, The New Blues Revolution receives rave reviews from national trade magazines such as Cashbox and Music Connection. Critics recognize NBR's exciting talent and extraordinary songwriting.

New Blues Revolution's exciting live show makes for great TV. Television appearances include live satellite broadcasts from New York City to prime-time television in Spain. Broadcast performances in major U.S. television markets (UPN in Los Angeles) confirm the appeal of the band's music across the U.S. Los Angeles television appearances have included KNBC, KCAL, KCOP and KMEX.
