About the Torps:

The Austin Torpedoes are a Boston area band who perform what its members like to call "good ol' American music." Their unique sound combines elements of many American musical styles such as blues, jazz, country, western swing, and rockabilly. In its unique way, the band interprets songs by a wide range of artists including: Duke Ellington, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, the Beatles, and Chuck Berry. The core members of the band, Nicky Vegas, lead vocals and guitar, Don Barthelemy, drums and percussion, and Gary Secondino, bass guitar, have been playing together for almost twenty years. The core members found the band's missing ingredient in the guise of Seitu whose Hawai'ian steel guitar further defined the band's sound. The band is often joined by special guest performers including their long-time friend Mr. Arthur Grady, aka the fifth Torpedo, on vocals and guitar, and Nicky Vegas' brother, Mr. Bobby Vegas, vocalist extraordinaire. Audiences all over New England have enjoyed the band's combination of smooth vocals, distinctive steel guitar sound, and swinging rhythms. The Torpedoes unique sound will lift up your spirits and make you move your feet. There's nothing like...The Austin Torpedoes!
