The Lydia Warren Band



The Lydia Warren Band - Pass My Way - 2003 - The Lydia Warren Band

"Versatile guitar work and a voice that can both simmer and sear"- Boston Herald : "BB Queen"- Boston Magazine : "Lydia is changing the face of the blues with her music"- NBC's Today Show : "This young singer-songwriter slings Chicago blues as well as anyone in the country and the shimmer of her silver Stratocaster and fretboard fireworks were matched by the hypnotic groove of bassist Matt Malikowski and drummer Warren Grant." - Insite Boston Magazine

With a voice that is both soulful and authentic, stinging guitar playing and songwriting that rivals the best in the business, Lydia Warren is ready to take the world of music by storm. Lydia has been getting critical acclaim and love from fans since the release of her debut CD in 2001, and is now supporting her newest CD released in 2003. Backed by Warren Grant (drums) and Matt Malikowski (bass), The Lydia Warren Band is fusing blues, R & B, soul, and modern pop to create a fresh and innovative sound. And at nineteen years old, Lydia is just getting started. While Lydia was a senior at Franklin (Massachusetts) High School in 2001 she released her debut, self-titled album. NBC's The Today Show aired a human interest story on the band, and WHDH Channel 7, Worcester Channel 3 and ATT Broadband Channel 3 followed suit. The band set itself apart from the rest of the local blues acts by sharing the stage with legendary performers, such as The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Johnny Winter, Rick Derringer, Buckwheat Zydeco, and Hubert Sumlin. In 2002 The Lydia Warren Band was nominated for a Boston Music Award in the New Blues Act category and was asked to perform in the 2002 NEMO conference. Following that, Lydia gave a seminar at Boston's Berklee School of Music about the life of a recording and touring musician. During the summer the band made it's way to Montreal, Canada, where they played for 60,000 people at the annual Festiblues. In late 2002 Lydia toured for several weeks throughout the Middle Eastern country Lebanon, where she performed at clubs, universities and the American Embassy. Now in 2003 the band has released its highly anticipated follow up album, Pass My Way. The new CD, which features 8 original songs, is an eclectic mix of vintage sounds, amazing talent and modern lyrics. It was recorded during January at a secluded house in Cape Cod, and is distributed throughout New England by Newbury Comics. Some of the shining moments on the album are the 1930's- style piano ballad "Lonely Fool", the rock-meets-soul "Don't Need No", and the Magic Sam cover "Give Me Time". If 2003 proves to be anything like the past few years for Lydia, Warren, and Matt, this band is on the fast track to becoming a household name. - © http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/lydiawarren2#

At 23 years old guitarist/singer/songwriter Lydia Warren is a veteran of playing clubs, making albums, and entertaining audiences. With her bassist Matt Malikowski and drummer Warren Grant in tow, the band has recorded 4 CDs, toured throughout the United States, Canada and Lebanon, opened for countless blues and rock legends, received a nomination for a Boston Music Award, and appeared on NBC's Today Show. The band seemlessly fuses classic rock and blues influences with modern pop and alternative rock sensabilities to create a fresh, in-your-face sound like no other. The trio has appeared with B.B. King, Johnny Winter, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Buckwheat Zydeco, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Hubert Sumlin, Litte Feat, and Rick Derringer. The band was selected for the Boston Blues Festival, Montreal's Festiblues (attended by 60,000 annually), the Hampton Beach Seafood Fest (attended by 200,000 annually), the NEMO music conference, Wachusett Music Festival, Barnstable County Fair, and Jonesboro Bluesfest. In 2006 Lydia and the boys traveled beyond New England on their first national tour, playing shows in Michicagn, Kentucky, North Carolina, Wisonsin, Maryland, and blues mecas Chicago, IL and Memphis, TN.
