Dead Root Revival is not a straight-up blues outfit, nor are they just another rock band. The band draws from many corners of the musical spectrum, and sometimes shift between these influences mid-song. One thing you can count on: a DRR concert is a variety of music and moods, shifts in tempo, and a sweeping use of dynamic range, resulting in a powerful concert experience. At the heart of the band, is veteran singer/songwriter/guitarist Tom Savage.
Many who know Savage for his more folk-oriented output are genuinely floored by the ferocity with which he attacks the strings of his signature Gibson Nighthawk. Joined by the virtuosic Tony Silvestri on keys, and anchored by the rock-solid rhythm section of Bonz Bowering
(drums) and Richard Piche (bass), this is rock and roll of the highest order. Forever evolving and pushing the limits of their music, no show is exactly alike, as DRR takes the audience to the edge of the track with them, without ever quite falling off the rails.

Lauren Carson is a singer and songwriter hailing from Toronto, known for her velveteen voice and introspective lyrics. She draws inspiration from artists such as Holly Humberstone and Stevie Nicks.

In a recent review by sound check entertainment, Carson was described as "a sunrise," a testament to her ability to captivate audiences with her music. With a unique brand of groovy folk-pop and a focus on lyricism, Carson's music is both soothing and thought-provoking.Carson's debut album, Earl St. was released summer '22, and received campus radio play across the country.

Most recently, she toured venues across Ontario to share her music with new audiences. Her live performances showcase her unique ability to connect deeply with listeners. As a songwriter, Carson often writes odes to youth and loneliness. Backed by a talented set of musicians, she weaves powerful and relatable experiences to listeners who find themselves in the audience.

Lauren is now promoting her newest release 'Growing' recorded at the Bathouse in Bath, ON, a powerful ballad of self-realization and knowing your worth.
