SUPERSONIC BLUES MACHINE is Lance Lopez (guitars/vocals/songwriter), Fabrizio Grossi (bass, producer, songwriter), and Kenny Aronoff (drums). As they've proven on their first album and round of shows, it's not a party unless you invite some friends, and for Californisoul, they've brought along some heavy hitters.
Guests on the album include Billy Gibbons, who returns with pen and guitar ("Broken Heart"), Steve Lukather (Toto) throws down some stunning licks ("Hard Times"), Eric Gales is back in the fold ("Elevate"), Robben Ford brings his bag of soulfully sophisticated chops ("Somebody's Fool"), Walter Trout brings some silky slow blues ("What's Wrong"), and the party is rounded out with Alessandro Alessandroni Jr. on keyboards, Serge Simic (co-writer and background vocals on "Love" and "Hard Times"), and Andrea and Francis Benitez Grossi (background vocals). You may come for the stars, but you'll stay for the whole show.
Fabrizio Grossi adds, "Lots of people have been saying to me ‘why does Supersonic Blues Machine always bring guests around? You guys can stand your own ground', and there are three answers to that : 1) we're all super friends and we're having a blast, 2) most of them don't give lessons and for us it's only way to learn their secret "ways", and three because the inspiration and the challenge they bring to the table!"
Supersonic Blues Machine is truly a family as well as a band, and these guests don't mail it in, they stay for dinner. The community aspect is very real, and one of the band's great treasures.
