Seth Yacovone Blues Band, based in Burlington, Vermont is a four piece ORIGINAL blues/funk/improvisational band. Having opened for such greats as BB King (3x), Original P (P-Funk), Koko Taylor, Roomful of Blues, The Radiators, Mike Welch and more, the band has gained quite a bit of recognition in the Northeast. You may have also seen or heard about Seth Yacovone performing WITH PHISH at the Worcester Centrum as Phish's 'special guest' on Nov 29, 1998. Phish showcased Seth performing one of Seth's original tunes, 'All The Pain Through The Years'. It was quite a night to remember!

SYBB's music has often been described as 'infectious'. In April '99, the band received standing ovations at both shows when they opened for BB King in Portland, ME and Lowell, MA. After their performance, they sold 60 CD's in just 30 minutes! Relix Magazine (Aug 1999) decribed their latest LIVE disc, entitled 'Yessir!' as an 'invigorating and refreshing disc' with some 'irresistible leads.' In the April 1998 issue of 'Blues Revue' their 1st release, 'Bobfred's Bathtub Minstrel' was described as an 'exceptional debut' and 'a blueprint for what is probably an exhilarating live show.' Both discs were self-produced and sel- released by the band. Both discs have been reprinted several times already!

In Sept 1999, Seth Yacovone Blues Band will be returning to the studio again, trying to record some new music that is in high demand from their fans. Their mailing list of 3000 continues to grow monthly. Seth Yacovone Blues Band includes the following members: Seth Yacovone on guitar & vocals, Luke Boggess on harmonica & vocals, Tom Coggio on bass and Steve Hadeka on drums.
