Laurie Morvan Band is a 5-piece high energy, rockin’ blues band based in Long Beach, CA that honed its tight, fiery sound through joyful, relentless, and ever-expanding touring throughout the USA, Canada and Europe, amassing over 80 festival performances along the way. Laurie Morvan has built a career playing guitar-driven, rocking blues, with a back pocket full of well-warranted swagger, and songs that reflect true craftsmanship. In an era where fewer and fewer artists are truly aware of (and engage) their audience, she is a true entertainer; a musical ringmaster leading her devastatingly tight band through a myriad of twists and turns with a level of finesse and musical intuition that only comes from years of working together.
