VANILLA FUDGE
Vanilla Fudge stands as one of America’s most influential rock bands, celebrated for their slow-burn, heavy reinterpretations of contemporary hits, most famously their groundbreaking version of “You Keep Me Hangin’ On.” Emerging at the height of the psychedelic era, the band carved out a sound that bridged 60s experimentation with the early foundations of heavy metal.
The group’s classic lineup featured Mark Stein, Tim Bogert, Vince Martell, and Carmine Appice, four musicians whose bold approach reshaped the landscape of rock. Today, Vanilla Fudge continues to tour with three of its founding members, Mark Stein, Vince Martell, and Carmine Appice and are joined by Pete Bremy, who stepped in when Tim Bogert retired in 2009. Bogert passed away in 2021, leaving behind a profound musical legacy that continues to inspire generations.
Recognized as “one of the few American links between psychedelia and what soon became heavy metal,” Vanilla Fudge has left an unmistakable imprint on the genre. Their innovative arrangements and powerful performances influenced countless major acts, including The Nice, Deep Purple, Yes, Styx, Led Zeppelin, and Uriah Heep.
With a sound that is both historic and undeniably alive, Vanilla Fudge remains a force on the touring circuit. This is a rare opportunity to experience rock legends still performing at the height of their craft.
