Wachtel THE BROOKS YOUNG BAND The Liberty Hotel Boston, Ma March 23, 2012 Review by A.J. Wachtel Seeing a young band from New Hampshire in one of Boston’s luxury hotels has me curious from the git-go: and my excitement builds as I enter the lobby and see a ton of people in motion walking around the stage and small round tables. This is my kind of place: an affluent pick-up joint with red-hot music. Brooks has a strong, expressive voice, his guitar reeks of Clapton licks and his music attracts a bigger crowd as the night goes on. His band, Andy Devine on guitar, Kirk Remignatti on bass and backing vocals, Jeff Leroy on keys and backing vocals and Dave Lombard on drums is a solid, enjoyable unit. I really like “You Don’t Know Why” and “Dance Alone” two power-pop melodies with the emphasis on POWER from their debut cd “Counting Down” and I especially dig their late-set version of “Jumping Jack Flash”. This is a party band to keep an eye on and The Liberty Hotel is rapidly becoming one of my favorite clubs to see a gig. (A.J.

Interview with Brooks Young Band for Wachusett Mountain MusicFest 2011 New Hampshire Chronicle A 28 year old from New Hampshire has set his sights on making music his careers and year by year he's been carving out a name for himself in the industry. Now the Brooks Young Band is on the verge of a major record deal. Our Amy Coveno sat down with Brooks to see where his career is taking him. The luck of the Irish has been smiling on John Grimes. Since a young age Grimes has been a dancing sensation. Last year he returned home as a member of the Riverdance Irish Dance Troupe, and we had the chance to catch up with him.

I was with him on his tour bus when the towers were hit,” recalled Brooks Young, who at the time was a teen guitar fiend given a chance to open for King when the blues legend performed in Concord, N.H. that day. King kept his commitment to play, perhaps instilling in Young a lesson about the unifying power of music. Full Article Interview with Brooks Young in The Hippo Press Focus, focus, focus Brooks Young makes his move By Michael Witthaus If desire and discipline were dollars, Brooks Young would be rich. Inspired by his grandfather, he picked up his first guitar at age 11. Two years later, Young heard Eric Clapton’s Unplugged and proceeded to teach himself every note. “I just used to sit in my room and practice that one book,” Young said recently from his home in Franklin. “All my friends thought I was crazy.” Full Article A Community Shines A Local Star Is Rising Full Magazine Article
Brooks Young Band stuns with stellar debut CD Counting Down By Bill Copeland on October 1, 2010 Full Article Click Here Brooks Young Band has released a satisfying debut CD called Counting Down. There are many good things that can be said it. The band manages to put out a quality sound by being tight with each other and then from there they just expand everything to make a huge, thick pleasing mix of styles into one big sound. There is a such a smooth flow of notes in each song, indicating this band has been playing together for quite some time. Young’s smooth as silk singing voice graces each track like a pleasant guest who shows up on time and keeps the day interesting and fun. He has a charming, likable, down-home something in his timbre that makes the listener feel like he’s sitting down talking with Young in his living room. Quotes "Brooks Young's voice, guitar and the airtight musicianship of his band make this CD a countdown to greatness." - New Hampshire Magazine "Handsome Brooks Young is a Fender-endorsed frontman who delivers clean, uncomplicated if not blistering solos while singing in a familiar style influenced by Mick Jagger, Peter Wolf and Van Morrison." -Music Connection Magazine "Young recaptures the energy of guitar driven Rock & Roll from the past, giving it a decidedly new millenium upgrade in both vibe and sound." -Metronome Magazine "Brooks Young Band Opens for B.B. King (again)" -Brian Early, Hippo Press "Brooks Young has a vintage Rolling Stones feel." -Michael Witthaus, The Hippo BROOKS YOUNG BAND IN THE NEWS Deep Blues - Concord Monitor
