Joe LaSorte (guitar) is one of the premier blues guitarists in the Mid-Atlantic region. He picked up his first guitar at age 11, and quickly progressed to playing with various east coast cover bands and blues outfits throughout the 1970s and 1980s.
Players
The Teletones are an all-star group of veteran Delaware-based musicians who joined forces in 2009 to create their own unique gumbo of soulful, funky blues music.
Lin Doughten
Lin Doughten (guitar and vocals) comes from a family of musicians that spans five generations. The jazz, blues, soul and rock that he grew up on strongly influence his fluid guitar style. His “less is more” approach is out of respect for the blues guitar masters he admires.
John Hedges
Johnny Hedges (bass and vocals) lays down the bottom line for the Teletones groove and adds soulful tenor vocals to the top. Johnny has played many styles of music but he started with the blues and returned to his roots in the Teletones.
Neal Tillotson
In the really early days, Neal Tillotson (drums and vocals) played in the satirical ensemble All You Can Eat and then backed up soul icon Larry Tucker in 1979 before forming the popular East Coast rock band Bad Sneakers in 1980.
