104.7 The Point and Orlio Organic Beer Company welcome
Grace Potter and the Nocturnals’ timeless, organic brand of American rock & roll uniquely blends funky blues, soul, and rock from decades past. The band's stirring mix of talent and hard work has earned them a loyal and rapidly expanding audience throughout the country. The quartet is led by 24-year-old phenomenon Grace Potter, whose vocal chops have drawn comparisons to legends like Aretha Franklin, Bonnie Raitt and Janis Joplin, while her scintillating work behind the B-3 conjures up visions of Steve Winwood, Garth Hudson and Billy Preston.
