The Rev Tor Band was formed in western Massachusetts by front man Tor Krautter in 1996. Since it’s conception, the band has evolved into a power house on the east coast club and festival circuit, performing in venues from Maine to Key West Florida. In their native New England, the band keeps a heavy touring schedule enthusiastically supported by a large following of dedicated fans.The group’s members are an eclectic crew from across themusical spectrum. Members of RTB have worked with the likes of The Band, Little Feat, Bill Monroe, Pete Seager and Arlo Guthrie. Together they have shared the stage with members of The Grateful Dead, Phish, The Allman Brothers, Dead & Co., Moe. and Hot Tuna. They have performed at festivals and concerts with Leon Russel, JGB, Los Lobos, The Funky Meters, String Cheese Incident, Rusted Root, and have toured regularly with Grateful Dead keyboardist Tom Constanten.
The Rev Tor Band’s large original repertoire feature funky, bass oriented rhythms and foot stomping percussion. Bouncy guitar lines pull the whole groove together and creates an entrancing state that just makes you want to shake it! Soulful melodies are immediately memorable. Even the occasional cover tune thrown in has a distinctly “Torricized” feel.
The Band has 8 releases on Smellydog Records. All are excellent examples of their dedication and meticulous approach to the quality of the music.
