Artist Information
Biography
Chicago rock/blues singer Lauren Wolf and The Lauren Wolf Band are everything that made pure rock artists like timelessly successful and none of what makes today's radio a monotonous fad. They have been described as Janis Joplin + Jimi Hendrix + Just enough of the now to make current.
The band finished up their 2012 season on December 27th at The House of Blues Chicago playing to an audience of 775+ people. Lauren and the boys have big hearts and big soul which always captures the attention of anyone who sees their LIVE performance. This is where they shine.
The Lauren Wolf Band were 2012 Hard Rock Rising Finalists and are the 2012 Winners of Live Nation's National Battle of the Bands. The LWB beat out 150+ bands nationwide. The band is quickly gaining a following locally, nationally, and even internationally. The LWB will be hitting the road for most of 2013/14 and plan to record their second album in October. Their first official video for their song "One Day" was released in October 2012.
Lauren's vocals are being compared to the likes of Janis Joplin, Grace Potter, and Joss Stone. Patrick Dugan on guitar is electrifying and the combination of the two makes you feel like you might have just taken a time machine right back to Woodstock.
On the drums is Philippine native, Mervin Dimailig. Do not let Mervin's shy demeanor fool you, because when this bad boy gets on stage, watch out for some intense rock beats and stylings. Rounding out the band is Bill Marzano on Bass. Bill's funky grooves polish off The LWB's classic but unique sound creating a show that makes people wanting more.
The Lauren Wolf Band's debut album "All My Secrets" was released by a two-time, Grammy-winning producer (formerly at Capitol Records for 15 years).
