ABOUT BLUE LOTUS:

Featured as part of Relix magazine's "Bands on the Rise" in 2012 and 2013; and awarded "Best New Act", "Favorite Female Performer", "Best Instrumentalist" and "Favorite Local Band" by the WOW hall in Eugene OR in 2014. This award winning group is quickly becoming the next up and coming rock and roll jam band.

Rooted in Rock and Blues, and experimenting with elements of Bluegrass, Jazz and Funk, the band fuses styles to create a high-energy, fun and danceable melodic hybrid. In 2011 the group released it's first full length album "Blue Lotus" which features 10 original hits. At the time the group had been together for only about six months. In 2012 came the release of their second album also self titled, which included five studio tracks and five live tracks. As the excitement about the band continued to grow, Blue Lotus went on to release a third album titled "A Thousand Other Things" which included 12 studio length," radio friendly" tracks. In 2014 the band released it's first EP featuring three more original previously unrecorded songs. The band is currently promoting the release of it's fifth album which is the band's first full length "live" album. "The fans love the long extended jams, so I think we need to give it to them" quotes Brandelyn Rose one of the group's founding members. The group now has upwards of 33 original songs.

This group is making lasting impressions with a growing West coast fan base, including radio play across the United States. They have sold CD's internationally and have been singing their hearts out on the festival stages including the world famous "Oregon Country Fair". They have hosted sit in live festival jams with members of Melvin Seals and JGB and shared the festival line-up with Nahko and Medicine for the People, The Shook Twins, Fruition, Scott Law, Afromassive, RJD2, Pimps of Joytime, Karl Denson, Phutureprimitive, Rock Collection, Tony Saunders and many more. You don't want to miss a chance to see them live!
