About

The Apocalypse Blues Revue was an American rock band formed in 2016. The band features two members of the rock group Godsmack, Shannon Larkin and Tony Rombola, alongside Brian Carpenter and Ray Cerbone. Originally formed as a blues rock band, the group expanded its sound by adding psychedelic rock to its repertoire with their third album. Larkin said the band's music was intended to "mix the influences from my two favorite classic rock artists—David Bowie and Pink Floyd—with my favorite blues artists: Johnny Winter, Stevie Ray Vaughan and B.B. King." The band's debut album reached the top 10 of Billboard's Blues Albums chart.

In 2019, the band was resurrected with a name change and member change at the front. Shane Hall (who sang for another project that Shannon and Tony were doing on the side for fun) replaced Ray "Rafer John" Cerbone on vocals. The band then changed the name to The Apocalypse Blues Revival. The new version of the band released their first song, "Can't Win for Losing", on July 22, 2019.
