Chambers DesLauriers isn’t just a band; it’s a testament to the power of love, music, and perseverance. The powerhouse duo of Annika Chambers and Paul DesLauriers have crafted a dynamic sound that seamlessly blends blues, rock, soul, and Americana, all wrapped in an authentic and inspiring story. Their sophomore album, Our Time to Ride, is both a triumphant declaration and an invitation to experience the magic they create together.

The story of Chambers DesLauriers began at the 2018 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, where Annika and Paul first crossed paths. Their connection—musical and personal—was instant, turning into a whirlwind romance by 2019. Individually, they were already celebrated artists in their own right. Annika Chambers, a three-time Blues Music Award winner, brought her powerhouse gospel-tinged vocals, while Paul DesLauriers, a celebrated Maple Blues Award-winning guitarist, delivered virtuosic playing and deep-rooted blues-rock experience. Together, they formed an unstoppable musical partnership.

Our Time to Ride marks a turning point for the duo. The album builds on the success of their debut Good Trouble while expanding their sound and message. It’s a reflection of their personal and artistic journeys—facing challenges, overcoming hardships, and arriving into their own with undeniable swagger and soul.
