With SIDEMAN SEZ, long-time Producer/Multi-instrumentalist and multiple Boston Music Award winner Rob Loyot takes his turn at the mic, delivering a Rhythm and Soul release in the style of Ray LaMontagne and Marc Cohn. The seed for the project was planted almost 15 years ago. As a "sideman" and bandmate for some amazingly talented songwriters over the last 25 years, in bands that played original music almost exclusively, Rob struggled with the fact that some of his favorite songs had never even been recorded. The songs, all borrowed from great songwriters that Loyot has worked with over the years, demonstrate a diverse set of influences from Little Feat's New Orleans gumbo of 'Take It Easy Baby' and the Gospel-inflected 'Let It Slide' to the Jack Jonhson-esque 'Passerby' and even giving a nod to Steely Dan with the dense chord changes of 'Sweetest Eyes' and the tight funkiness of 'Swing Out West.' In short, Sideman Sez is a loving nod to Loyot's own experience as a sideman, and to sidemen in general.

Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter Marc Cohn has been obsessed with pop music for as long as he can remember: "I was hooked from day one. My older brother had a band that rehearsed in our basement, so I heard Bacharach, The Beatles, Ray Charles, and Motown coming up through the floorboards from the time I was six years old. By the time I was eleven though, the Beatles were breaking up and singer-songwriters were breaking through, and a lot of that music really resonated for me"
