Like a blast from the past, QUORUM comes at you with vintage rock sound straight out of the 70's. Despite their young age (the group states an average age of 22), these guys list such old school rock greats as Jimi Hendrix and Led Zepplin as their greatest influences and it shows with their bluesy guitar riffs and melodic vocals. Classic rock with a modern edge, this is a group that is sure to steal the show. Check them out below the break.
