Биография

The seeds of Supersonic Blues Machine grew from the rhythm section of Steve Lukather's side project jam band Goodfellas in 2010 - bassist Fabrizio Grossi and drummer Kenny Aronoff. The pair wanted to continue expanding the Goodfellas concept, determined to create something more than a "session ensemble for hire." When ZZ Top's Billy F Gibbons contacted Grossi to collaborate on writing/producing a song for an upcoming commercial, all pieces came together. The music didn't become a commercial, but gave Fabrizio the idea to write more songs and start a band. The band have operated as a band of comrades and kindred spirits with a revolving line-up of star-studded guests, including Billy F. Gibbons, Steve Lukather, Warren Haynes, Eric Gales, Robben Ford, Chris Duarte and more. At the core has always been Fabrizio Grossi, who has worked with some of the finest musicians around, including Steve Vai, Eric Gales, Slash, to name a few and Kenny Aronoff, whose credits include; John Mellencamp, Smashing Pumpkins, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Joe Cocker, among others. British rocker Kris Barras replaced Texan Lance Lopez as singer-guitarist for their 2018 tour, and cements his place on Voodoo Nation. There is a reason that Guitarist magazine called them "Guitar's hottest supergroup" as the line-up for Voodoo Nation is another gathering of icons along with some of the most exciting names in blues.
