Rising amongst the skyscrapers, peering their heads over Times Square, it's Bloodroot, a powerful, groove laden three piece from Brooklyn, New York who will be playing at The Carlton (Standish st. Burnley) as part of their 'Blood Red Tour 2006' on Sat. 16th Sept.
These guys are NYC's fastest moving hard rock phenomenon. Combining the awesome trademark of crunchy guitars through Marshall Amps with driving, hard hitting drum beats with a mixture of undeniably infectious vocal melodies and tasty harmonies, Bloodroot has begun to define their own style which while influenced by many is perfectly suited to today's music world - darkly melodic hard rock with a touch of psychedelia. Drawing on inspiration provided by everybody from Black Sabbath and the Beatles to Kurt Cobain and Alice In Chains.
Bloodroot are led by Johnny Young who cut his teeth right out of school with former Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor as the singer and keyboard player in his touring band. Yes, Johnny has been blind since he was 17. Since then, he has bruised his legs and his forehead on numerous stages across the North American continent and around the world, gigging, recording, producing, and even winning an Emmy Award.
Support band will be Strange Street.
Don't miss this because these guys are seriously good.
