This Is The Band Yo Mama Warned You About!
Los Blancos (l to r Mark Nanni, Steven T. Winston, Colin Aberdeen, Mark Tiffault) are on a Spring Tour.
“JUST THIS ONCE deserves many spins… Los Blancos are “Mucho Terrificos’ in our book… what a terrific album that is” - Dave Johnson, Host of Nationally-Syndicated Radio Program, BLUES DELUXE.
On any given night LOS BLANCOS rips through Blues, Soul, Rockin' Zydeco, Latin, Outlaw Country, NYC Funk, Folk, and more. They've been compared to Little Feat, The Radiators, The Band, The Grateful Dead, and other breeders of American Roots Music. Over more than a decade Los Blancos has rocked THOUSANDS of shows, and tens of thousands of miles, reveling in a genuine passion for what they do. A crew of troubadour craftsmen and kindred souls who have joined forces for the long haul and for the love of music.
Colin Aberdeen, an honest voice and heartfelt guitars. Whether he’s beltin’ out the blues, or melting the ladies with a little sweet soul music, Aberdeen is an original. His confident, emotion-filled voice will wrap around you like your mama’s arms and just make you feel good. And we mean Damn Good! Colin will bring down the house when he’s slingin’ that slide on the guitar, too! A true-blue artisan of the roots.
The keyboard angle is covered by the inimitable Mark Nanni. His versatility is unmatchable, his passion on the keys, undeniable. From solo gigs, to band leader, to first-call side man, Nanni has done it all. Mark is equally at home on piano, churnin’ and burnin’ Leslie organ, or any other board including one bad-ass accordion! His jazz sensibility, intense vocals, and improvisational freedom add a heapin’ helping of color and spice to the Los Blancos stew.
Rhythms are injected by drummer Mark Tiffault, & bassist Steven T. Winston. Tiffault spent years touring with John Lee Hooker, The Kingsnakes, and most recently with Handy Award winner Carey Bell. Road seasoned chops and spirited playing create the kind of backbeat rhythm that drive right through your soul. Filling out the blessed bottom is the big fat bass of Steven T. Winston. Having been a collaborator on countless gigs around the region, he has the experience and taste to know what fits, no matter what the style. Never content to just lay down the bootyshakin’ bass, Steven T. is a great, burly, bear of a singer, too! They can go chooglin’ on down like a 2 mile freight train, or float on a stone soul GROOVE.
Back porch harmony, a live intensity that can’t be denied, and a massive, ever-evolving melting pot of music make Los Blancos a band that will stick with you for a long, long time.
