Female lead guitarist rips through red hot blues rock. Think Stevie Ray Vaughan meets Bonnie Raitt.
Bio / Background
FYI...Backroad Shack has changed its name to The Laurie Morvan Band and has a new 2004 release called "Find My Way Home". After you check out Backroad Shack's "Out Of The Woods" album, please click over to the new page (see the link for The Laurie Morvan Band below).
Orange County Weekly says
"... Backroad Shack yanked our earlobes and dragged us over to the in-store cafe, where they were playing. After a night of fruitless chases, the Shack was exactly what we needed to hear, a perfectly satisfying blues band fronted by a woman who painfully wailed on guitar and tonsils. Their rubber-band-handed bass plucker impressed us with his six-string technique, and we actually witnessed their drummer beat out an entertaining solo, which we didn't think any band could ever pull off. As for the what-the-hell-do-they-sound-like game we sometimes play, imagine the Indigo Girls having an orgy with the Allman Brothers Band with Stevie Ray Vaughan snapping pictures...

Rockit Radio says
"We liked your CD, Out Of The Woods, so much we had to change our format for you guys! We normally play 50's style music but with Backroad Shack your style is so good we decided to feature it...so hopefully in some small very minute way we can help you guys along..."
Music Connection Magazine says
"Here's a female-fronted roadhouse rockin' blues outfit...a tight band and it shows on their self-released CD...no doubt a very entertaining live act...possesses the essence of American rock & roll...the tunes are so infectious..."
Downey Business says
"With a female guitar player/vocalist smokin' out some bluesy guitar this band could easily be on the same concert bill as performers like Bonnie Raitt or Melissa Etheridge..."
Backroad Shack has opened for The Fabulous Thunderbirds and for Rick Derringer. They've headlined at B.B. King's Blues Club and been featured on the KABC Channel 7 Morning News as well as SBTV's "On Cue" which is an hour long live performance and interview program.
If ya feel the need to know even more about the players on this album...
Influenced by the aggressive styles of her blues guitar heroes, Laurie Morvan's guitar playing has received rave reviews and is always a huge crowd pleaser. Her stage presence commands total attention and her gutsy, personal songwriting makes strong connections with the audience. People remember this tall, blonde-haired, blue-eyed, blues-rockin' woman. Complimenting Laurie's guitar work is bassist Pat Morvan on 6 string fretted and fretless basses. His inventive bass lines are the heart and soul of the band and are well worth the price of admission to any Backroad Shack show. Locked in like a rock solid rhythm vice is the entertaining, creative drumming of Tony Dennis Barach whose style bridges the dynamic gap between all out blues rock thunder and tasteful laid back finesse. The finishing touches on piano, organ and strings are performed by keyboardist Lou Apodaca who also supplies the background vocals along with Pat. Enjoy the album!
