(The Blues) Blues supergroup The Boom Band, fronted by Marcus Bonfanti, have released a video discussing the formation of the group and the making of their debut CD.

It's the subject of an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign, which has secured nearly a third of its funding target with 25 days remaining. The outfit was formed last year by guitarist Matt Taylor and drummer Steve Rushton, who set about building a hand-picked band. Alongside frontman Bonfanti they've recruited guitarists Jon Amor and Mark Butcher, pianist Paddy Milner and bassist Jon Noyce.

Between them they have experience with Jeff Beck, Jack Bruce, Gary Moore, Jethro Tull and many other acts. Their debut album was originally released in a limited-edition run of 200 vinyl editions.

They're planning to launch the CD version in March next year. Read more and watch the video here.
