The Florida-born SEAN CHAMBERS began his blues career in 1998 when he toured with the legendary Hubert Sumlin. During Chambers’ time with Mr. Sumlin, he was named by the British Guitarist Magazine as "one of the 50 greatest blues guitarists of the last century."
Chambers' latest album "That's What I'm Talkin About" was released in 2021 on the Quarto Valley Record Label. The album reached the Top Ten of the Billboard Blues Charts and received widespread acclaim and enthusiastic reviews worldwide.
In 2023, shortly after the unfortunate passing of Savoy Brown founder Kim Simmonds, Chambers teamed up with the rhythm section of Savoy Brown, consisting of Pat De Salvo on bass and Garnet Grimm on drums. Chambers and the members of Savoy Brown became friends after performing together at a festival in 2019. Since
Savoy Brown and Sean Chambers were on the same label, the transition made sense and felt right for all three musicians. Kim Simmonds also supported the project and gave the trio his blessing.
PAT DE SALVO began recording with Kim Simmonds in 2001 for his solo album "Blues Like Midnight" and its follow-up "Struck by Lightning." He also worked with him on two albums with Jimmy Cavallo: "House Rocker," which was nominated for a W.C. Handy Award, and the follow-up album "You Better Believe It." Pat began touring and recording with Kim in 2009. He played on "Voodoo Moon," "Songs from the Road," "Going to the Delta," "The Devil to Pay," and "Witchy Feelin," which reached number 1 on the Billboard charts under the Ruf label. Pat also played and mixed two live records "Still Live After 50 Years" Volume 1 and 2, "City Nights," "Ain't Done Yet," and "Blues With a Feeling," along with a DVD Live From Daryl's House. In the 1990s, Pat founded the record label "Poverty Records" and released four records, including two "Harmonica Blow-Off" records. Pat also recorded over 20 records regionally in Central New York.
GARNET GRIMM is from Syracuse NY. After high school, he served in the U.S. Army and then studied music for two years at Onondaga Community College in Syracuse, New York. He completed his studies with an Associates in Applied Science in Music, and with the desire to perform, Garnet spent a lot of time in the 1990s playing and touring with regional bands, working along the East Coast and in the Canadian provinces. In 1999, he met Kim Simmonds, who lived in the Central New York area. Together with bassist Pat De Salvo, he worked on Kim's solo recording "Blues Like Midnight." Later, he played with Kim Simmonds as an acoustic/electro trio. In 2009, Simmonds invited Grimm along with Pat De Salvo to join Savoy Brown. The trio spent 14 years playing, recording, and touring together until Kim passed away in December 2022.
