Lorelei McBroom- background vocals

“I grew up on folk, rock and roll, pop/jazz, and good soul music. My family was progressive in their approach to my upbringing,” says the Los Angeles born singer who has worked with acts like BILLY IDOL, CHRIS ISSAK and EURYTHMICS.  As fate would have it, PINK FLOYD (the Godfathers of Psychedelia) gave her her first exposure to the road on their “Momentary Lapse of Reason “and “Delicate Sound of Thunder” tours. She followed that by touring with the  ROLLING STONES. Both the Stones and The Floyd gave her the chance to be both operatic and bluesy, featuring her in duet with MICK JAGGER on “GIMMIE SHELTER” and “GREAT GIG IN THE SKY” respectively.

Lorelei’s additional credit highlights include: LOU REED (backing him with GRACE JONES & DEBBIE HARRY) SISTER SLEDGE (as a songwriter), PHILLIP BAILEY, AARON NEVILLE, DONNY OSMOND, ALBERT COLLINS, and NILE RODGERS

Lorelei has performed in film, television, music videos, live and in the recording studio.  She has also ventured into the world of production, co-producing music for XBox and promoting Classic R&B concerts for the Internationally renownedUnderground Network.

As one of the newest members of the amazing ROD STEWART’S backing band she says “I feel truly honored to join Rod on tour! He is one of my favorite singers and his band is soulful and rockin’!”

Larisa Stow- background vocals on “Shake Out Your Pockets”

As winner of Los Angeles Music Awards’ Singer/Songwriter of the Year, Larisa Stow is known for her thought-provoking, soul-searching lyrics and haunting melodies. Most recently, her passion to integrate the sounds of popular music, world-based rhythms and melodies with the ancient form of Kirtan, devotional call and response music, has driven her to collaborate with Grammy award-winning producer and songwriter, Rick Hahn (Celine Dion). The magic of that union resulted in a compilation of engaging Kirtans that are a seamless blend of east meets west.
