The Band

The Ballou Brothers Band has been honing its musical skills in nightclubs, colleges, studios and private functions since 1977. During the 1980’s the band
performed regularly throughout New England and became a local favorite based on its breath-taking live show. The band also sponsored its annual Foot
Stompin’ Picnic to showcase other local talents.

Members of the Ballou Brothers Band have shared the stage with J GEILS and BLUES TIME, ENTRAIN, THE STOMPERS, JOHN CAFFERTY and the BEAVER
BROWN BAND, JAMES MONTGOMERY, ERIC BURDEN from THE ANIMALS and ROD PRICE from FOGHAT.

In addition, individual members also branched off occasionally participating in other musical projects with local acts such as FACTORY STREET, THE
BENDERS, THE BALLOU MAGOON BAND, NORTHBOUND TRAIN, and MOWTH to name a few.

The Ballou Brothers Band features: Deane Ballou, guitar and lead vocals; Matt Ballou, guitar, and lead vocals; Gary Young guitar and vocals; Mark Partridge
and Gary Blaisdell, bass and vocals; percussionist Bennett Chandler; and Dave Ballou, drums, percussion and vocals. True to their love of roots music, band
members are also incorporating the fiddle, lap steel and mandolin into their music.

Like most great guitar rock bands, legendary rockers Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Allman Brothers, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young influenced the Ballou Brothers
Band. And, while the band plays cover tunes with a vengeance, its sound and lyrics are uniquely it’s own.
