| Pat Colwell and the Soul Sensations rock their way into the new millenium with a powerful mix of robust music centered around classic rock and roll, bodacious renditions of the best soul music and blues, and a complete set of original tunes.
Former Speaker of the Maine House of Representatives, Pat Colwell, (The nation’s only “Rock ‘N Roll Speaker”) paves the way with searing guitar leads from by-gone era’s tastefully blended into contemporary versions of heart-wrenching soul music. His voice is reminiscent of the days of Muddy Waters, Wilson Pickett, and Wolfman Jack.
Studio wizard Bob Colwell, the other half of the legendary Colwell Brothers, rips it up with his electrifying keyboards and soulful vocals. Bob has worked with a Who’s Who’s of musicians including, BB King, The Band, Roseanne Cash, and his own bands: The Inspectors and The Boneheads.
Back-up vocals come from sideman extraordinaire Dr. Dave Wakefield on saxophone and blues harp. “The Doctor” has played with the King Bees, Shack Bully, High Rider, and the late, great Bill Chinnock. The powerful rhythm section of Greg Lindholm on bass, and Mike Auger on drums lays down a groove that’s guaranteed to keep you on your feet. In addition they help out on the soaring three and four part vocal harmonies that defines The Soul Sensations signature style!
The band covers blues and rock and roll from Delbert McClinton, John Lee Hooker, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds, to soul favorites by Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, and ” new soul” divas Alicia Keyes and Duffy. Their numerous CD’s also provide a wealth of original R&B music to their sets.
Pat, Bob, and Dave have a smooth rapport with any audience, and polished Master of Ceremony skills. These, together with the band’s danceable repertoire, and unique showmanship, make this band your best choice for weddings, nightclubs, and concerts.
