NYC’s The VeeVees recently added lead vocalist Sophia Urista to what was formerly a White Stripes/Kills/Black Keys-style act. With her vocal power, now its founding members, Garrett Cillo (guitar/vocals) and Andrea Belfiore (drums), can take things in the more epic direction of, say, Cream or Led Zepplin. (No shit?) If nothing else, Urista's addition creates more sex appeal and a deeper leap into the belly of the blues - don't miss their explosive live show at The Deli's Revival Stage at CBGB Music Fest on Friday 10.10 - more info here. - by Dave Cromwell, photo by Dennis Manuel.
