Hello!!!
Here’s an update for you:
On August 1ST 2009, I will be performing, along with a host of fabulous musicians and singers from Nashville, LA and Las Vegas, “Rewiring Genesis: A tribute to the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway”. The show will be held in Whittier California at The Center Theater. Here is a link to Papa J’s Calprog website with more info and a link to buy tickets: www.calprog.com/rewiring_genesis_live.htm
This is going to be an incredibly fun evening. With a 14 piece band of bass, drums, guitar, keys, vocals, and a phat horn section that will rip your head off with proggy goodness. We did a show with some of these same players in Nashville not too long ago. That was a great night also but it was in a very small club and we couldn’t perform the material. However, on August 1st we will be performing the CD in its entirety!
The band will be:
Me, NDV on Lead Vocals
Dave Martin on Bass
Rick Musallam on Guitar
Jimmy Keegan on Drums
Kevin Krone on Keys (String Duty)
Ed Goldfarb on Piano
John Hinchey on Trombone
Mark Visher on Sax/Flute
Willie Murillo on Trumpet
Charlie Peterson on Baritone Sax
Leigh Levine on Clarinet
Randy Leago on Sax/Accordion
Kat Bowser and Carolyn Martin on BGVs
The night’s festivities will also be filmed and recorded, so come and be apart of the fun.
Speaking of fun, after all of The Lamb festivities are over, Spock’s Beard will be joining me on stage for some more proggy goodness! And, if all goes well, the phat horn section might show up for a Spock’s tune or two. Whoo-hooo! (I have no idea on what yet but we’ll think of something)
Hope to see you there!
