Paul DesLauriers Band
Rainbow Bistro, 76
Murray Street
Friday, May 26 @ 9:30
pm
Sometimes you just have to do what you love, and the Paul
DesLauriers Band has been very busy doing just that. The trio is made up of
virtuoso guitarist and singer Paul DesLauriers and masterful rhythm section
Greg Morency on bass and Sam Harrisson on drums. At this year’s Maple
Blues Awards, the members of the rhythm section each picked up awards as
Bassist and Drummer of the Year. It was Morency’s second win in three years,
while Harrisson got the nod for the first time. The band also took home
trophies in the Electric Act of the Year as well as Entertainer of the Year
categories. The band has been riding a growing wave of success since the fall
of 2015 when it clinched a win at the Montreal Blues Society hosted Quebec to
Memphis contest. This secured them a slot at the International Blues Challenge
in Memphis in 2016, where they impressed, finishing 2nd worldwide
out of a field of 119 competing bands.
Following up on the success of their self-titled album
from 2014, The Paul DesLauriers Band’s latest release “Relentless” is “a
genuine blues-rock escapade featuring 10 new songs encompassing their most
original and powerful work to date”.

Anthony Gomes
Salle La Basoche, 120
Principale, Gatineau QC
Friday, May 26 @ 8
pm; $34.50
Anthony Gomes, #1 Billboard Blues Artist, is a triple
threat force as a guitarist, vocalist and songwriter. This, along with his
high-energy shows and dynamic stage presence, make him one of the top draws on
the Rock/Blues circuit today.
Gomes has been creating virtuosic, burning blues since his recorded debut in 1998 and is showing no signs of stopping by releasing his most successful album to date. Electric Field Holler, riff-laden and his most rock influenced album yet, has been nominated for Blues Album of the Year and already made several ‘Best Of’ Lists.
Anthony Gomes has headlined concerts in 17 countries and has had the honor of sharing the stage with B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Robert Plant, Joe Bonamassa, Heart, Alice Cooper, Jonny Lang and Kenny Wayne Shepherd.
Not only has he shared the stage with the likes of B.B. King and Buddy Guy, he also founded the Music is the Medicine Foundation in 2010 a non-profit organization dedicated to changing the lives of others through the healing power of music. Through private donations and grants, the foundation has funded song writing scholarships, offered music education programs, and donated musical instruments to those in need. Without passion there is no music; Anthony Gomes gets it… on so many levels!
Gomes sings and plays with integrity and deeply felt emotion oblivious to fortune and fashion.
