Spampinato Brothers

Two Members of the legendary band NRBQ (New Rhythm and Blues Quartet), Joey and Johnny Spampinato, have launched a new band, The Spampinato Brothers. These guys rock...enough said.
In addition to singing, songwriting, and playing bass for NRBQ, Joey Spampinato played on Keith Richards' album "Talk Is Cheap", Bonnie Raitt's "Fundamental" , and was one of the bassists on Eric Clapton's "24 Nights: Live From Albert Hall" in 1991. He appeared in the film "Hail, Hail Rock N' Roll", with the legendary Chuck Berry, Keith Richards and many more.
Johnny Spampinato, the personable left-handed guitar slinger, continues to provide vocal and writing talents to NRBQ and was part of the band's lineup when they appeared on "The Simpsons" both live and as animated characters.
Now, Joey and Johnny are doing what they always knew was their destiny: to write, record and perform music together as The Spampinato Brothers. They are joined by Aaron Spade on guitar and Jay Cournoyer on drums. In the words of their mother, Teresa Spampinato, "My two sons are the most beautiful creatures in the world!" Was she biased? Whose to say. But one thing is certain Mrs. Spampinato's boys are sharing their toys and playing very nicely together.
