Crimson Sky is a young blues and classic rock band from Middletown, New Jersey.


Don't let their age fool you! These kids are continuously impressing audiences around the tri-state area. Inevitably, after every show, someone will ask "How old are they?!"


Performing beyond their years are: Allison LaRochelle - with her emotional and energetic vocals; Tristan Garrity and Chris DeCarolis - delivering exceptional guitar chops; Dillon Latore - keeping time on the drums; Paul Reinhold - working the pocket on bass; and Samantha LaRochelle - making her keyboard dance.


There are a lot of exciting things coming up for Crimson Sky. Their EP of original songs will be dropping at the end of December, and they will be representing the youth category in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, TN in January 2014!


So, if you're looking for a bunch of talented young musicians with a drive and passion for music, they are the right match for you. Their soulful and bluesy original music, as well as their covers of classic rock and blues songs, will always bring you to your feet!

 
Sarah Larson is an 18 year old aspiring country singer/songwriter from Hamilton, New Jersey. She self-taught herself both the guitar and piano at a young age. She has an EP with 9 of her original songs that will be for sale at the show. She last opened for John Eddie over this past summer. She recently over past months has started college attending Mercer County Community College with a major of political science and minor of music.
