NRBQ

 

 

From Miami, Florida.  A US version of the British pub rock band.  The name is short for the very boring sounding New Rhythm and Blues Quartet.  Led by Joey Spampinato (vocals/bass) and Terry Adams (vocals/piano) with Johnny Spampinato (vocals/bass) and Tommy Ardolino (drums).  The band was discovered by blues artist Slim Harpo which helped them secure a recording contract.  Beginning in the late 60's, they slowly built a steady following and like their peers The Flamin' Groovies, became legend for their power pop skills.  They prefer to call their music "omnipop"!  1969-present.
