“Debbie’s great vocals and intense energy on stage is something to behold with her hair flying yet somehow returning to it’s original place adds a ‘hot’ factor that isn’t seen much with live acts… this band was very energetic and action heavy compared to most bands that just stand there and do not engage the crowd…. Hearing their next original ‘Rockstar’ bothered me, only because this band was somehow unsigned, yet pulled crowds into frenzy and generated rocking tunes throughout spot-on covers of traditional and newer rockers…. The crowd was jumping, screaming, loving the band to the extent that it was difficult to navigate their way off stage for another setbreak…. The band’s camaraderie I observed during setbreak was uncanny; they could easily be mistaken for brothers and sisters joking around and having a good laugh, keeping a positive, but not naive outlook on things…. The band played strong till 3:30am, long after it was time for me to call it a night. Ten Year Vamp puts on one helluva show for any music fan.”

Described by music media as the next No Doubt, Ten Year Vamp has sold thousands of CD’s, earning them a spot on the Billboard charts and numerous local, regional, and national awards along the way.
Ten Year Vamp’s 2011 release, called Lust, is a 5 track, high energy pop/rock collection with a unique perspective on love and lust. “Every night we’re playing in some club or concert hall watching the audience. We’ve seen every possible permutation of love and lust… the stories unfold right in front of us.” says front-woman Debbie Gabrione. “We had fantastic success with our last album and the royalties are great. We wanted to follow up with something just as strong.”
The band has performed over 750 shows across the Northeast USA, including CBGBs, The Knitting Factory and the 20,000+ Saratoga Performing Arts Center. They’ve shared the bill with bands like Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Lifehouse, Good Charlotte, One Republic, Gavin DeGraw, Finger Eleven, Nickleback, Spin Doctors, The Gin Blossoms, Natasha Beddingfield, Simple Plan, and many more.
Ten Year Vamp’s first full-length album, Don’t Act Like You Know Me, was featured on CNBC, Forbes.com and many other TV/news/music publications from around the world. The album was named Best Indie Album of 2009 by The Mothpod and several songs from the album were voted among the top 20 songs of 2009 by various nationwide charts. Songs from the album were used by FOX Sports, TLC, The Speed Channel, The Versus Channel, Dockers Jeans, The Adobe Corporation, and many others. Songs from the album were also featured on ABC FAMILY‘s, Switched At Birth, and several of MTV‘s prime time shows including The Jersey Shore, The Real World and The Real World Challenge.
“The band’s Don’t Act Like You Know Me works well as a spotlight for the band’s music. Frankly I can’t understand why Ten Year Vamp isn’t a household name already in the music scene… this band should be headlining the shows…. For any record labels executives reading this do yourself a favor and head up to Albany, New York and sign this band, you won’t be sorry.”

“For an Indie band working outside of the major label framework, Ten Year Vamp has been extremely successful at getting their music placed/licensed, and has even managed to chart in Billboard magazine. The band itself is as tight as a wire, and lead vocalist Debbie Gabrione is the type of front woman who can captivate an audience from the first note…. Lust opens with “Got 2 Me”, an amped up love song about the power of love to turn her head. The high energy rocker is full of honest vulnerability meshed with toughness that’s appealing in a 1980’s Pat Benatar style. “Thinking Of Me” keeps the temp and energy going with a catchy rocker that seems ripe for use in an edgy romantic comedy. Gabrione’s vocals are superlative as always, and you simply won’t be able to sit or stand still.”

“I was blown away by this band right away… The first time that I heard the lead singer Debbie Gabrione’s voice, I was hooked. They got great songs, excellent lyrics, great melodies, and like I said, Debbie’s voice just ties it all together. The album Don’t Act Like You Know Me, is solid all the way through… I ended up buying the album and wanted to play almost every song on the show today… On top of it all, Debbie is just f&%$in hot… This is a top of the UC Radio List recommendation.”

“Having fondly remembered the band’s 2009 debut album ‘Don’t Act like You Know Me’, I have been eagerly awaiting the follow up by Ten Year Vamp. Now comes the “Lust” five-track EP, a disc that continues the impressive high-energy music that this band is becoming well known for. Driven by the charismatic lead singer Debbie Gabrione, the songs draw out their issues surrounding love and lust. It is easy to be captivated by Debbie and she sings with great heart and purpose. With a talented band alongside her, their career should continue to boom”
