  • (1888PressRelease) February 03, 2016 - Dreamkiller is pleased to announce the addition of two new notable members, hailing from nationally renowned former and current projects. Stepping in on lead guitar and backing vocals is seasoned industry veteran, Scott LaFlamme, of Springfield, MA. Scott is most known for his work with Randy Rhoads Remembered tribute events, as well as the lead guitarist for national act, Bang Tango, with whom he toured extensively from 2010 - 2014, as well as co-wrote and recorded one of the band's most successful albums to date, "Pistol Whipped In The Bible Belt". He currently also plays guitar in Super Troup, which features fan favorite journeyman singer Chas West (Jason Bonham Band, Lynch Mob, Foreigner, Hollywood Allstarz), bassist Jason Cornwell (Mr. Big's Eric Martin), and drummer Derrick Pontier (Great White, Poison's CC DeVille, Stryper's Oz Fox).

    A veteran of the stage and studio, Scott has worked with industry producers such as John Ellis, Jimmy Devito, and most recently Daniel Salcido. Touring extensively for over 20 years, and praised for his extensive knowledge of intricate musical theory, Scott spearheads LMI Studio (LaFlamme Music Instruction), where he educates students in technique and theory for guitar, bass, keyboards, drums, vocals and songwriting. Additionally, he has recorded numerous bands at his studio, including the world famous Shinedown. Scott is endorsed by InTune Guitar Picks, Gibson & Spector Guitars, D'Addario Strings, and Rock N' Roll Gangstar Clothing.

    Joining Dreamkiller on bass and backing vocals is Jason Cornwell, otherwise known as the Boston Bassman. JC is most known for playing bass with "Mr. Big's Eric Martin". He has toured with countless bands throughout his career, including Dokken and also currently tours with Super Troup. JC's repertoire includes the use of chording, two-handed tapping, right hand "three finger picking" technique and controlled feedback. However, Cornwell is also noted as a steady "true" bassist, fulfilling the traditional supportive role of the electric bass in the rock rhythm section. Additionally, JC continues to work as a solo artist releasing albums, touring and is currently endorsed by Brubaker Basses, SIT strings, Ernie Ball, Vivid Amps, and most recently EBS Professional Bass Equipment.
