HeadRain~~Featuring Lorna: Bio
Lorna - Vocalist
HEADRAIN is an original South Jersey band, developing a strong local following. While the music defies easy categorization, it includes elements of ballsy modern rock, blues, folk-rock and country. As reviewed on cdbaby.com:
"Lorna's lyrics and vocals, reminiscent of the best of 80's rockers will keep these songs on your play list for a long time. With deep roots in rock and a touch of country the songs are both emotionally powerful, yet extremely playable. Finding a balance between pop, rock and country is not easy, yet these songs bridge all three genres with ease.... No one that purchases this CD will be disappointed. Personally, I think Lorna should have named the CD "Fly"...a song that speaks to the potential and possibility of dreams...she can be anything she wants...she can have anything she needs...spread your wings and Fly! An artist worth watching!"
LORNA is a vocal powerhouse. Her expansive vocal styling is reminiscent of Ann Wilson from Heart at its most sonorous, to Bonnie Raitt on the bluesy/sultry end of the spectrum. She has trained with many of the top vocal coaches and recently released a CD of her original songs entitled “Headrain”, which the band is currently performing live.
Criss - Lead Guitar
Performing guitarist Criss Peary started culminating his unique approach to the guitar at the age of 10. “A year later I was performing Blues in the Chicago area, I quickly realized the potential of the guitar when I began studying Jazz. From there I was given the opportunity to move to North Carolina and study contemporary American music.” Living now in the Philadelphia area his mature style is rich with overtones and subtle textures. “I’m delighted to be working with such proficient players in our band. I look forward to bringing out the best possible show."
John - Bass
JOHN Harrigan began his musical endeavors at an early age as a percussionist and as a teenager moved on to guitar and bass. John has played his Fender bass in numerous bands around the South Jersey area since the mid-80s delivering his low, backbone style. John is inspired by the genres of classic and modern rock, jazz, and music production.
