BLOOD SWEAT & TEARS
Blood, Sweat & Tears is not the first band to ever use a horn section, but they are the first to fuse it with rock, jazz, and some blues thrown in for good measure. From the first ensemble in the late ’60s practicing in a loft on Bleeker Street in New York’s Greenwich Village and having crowds clapping on the street below between songs, founding member and drummer Bobby Colomby knew they were on the right course. Since then, the band has never stopped touring for over 50 years. Their second album, the self-named Blood Sweat & Tears, was a success, rising to the top of the charts for seven weeks and yielding three “Top 5” singles, including God Bless The Child, Spinning Wheel, and You’ve Made Me So Very Happy. The album received the Grammy Award for “Album of the Year” in 1970 beating out the Beatles’ Abby Road. That album went on to earn quadruple Platinum status with sales well over 4 million units. Come hear Blood Sweat & Tears perform your favorite songs with their new lead singer Keith Paluso, an Americana singer/songwriter. After appearing on NBC’s The Voice, his Southern soul and folk background landed him his latest gig as the lead singer of Blood Sweat and Tears.
