The Eddie Sherman Show
PERFORMANCE DATE: Saturday, June 22nd
TYPE: Jazz
WEBSITE: www.eddieshermanshow.com
DESCRIPTION: Singing since he was a kid…..that’s what he did. Growing up where Country Music was the dominating household soundtrack, until the well older teen siblings started introducing the 50’s pop & rock of the day .....the performance gene was musically injected at a very early age. Drive-In Movie all nighters filled with Nashville performers & Film Soundtracks from “The Jolson Story” to “West Side Story” altered the state of mind of the young Eddie Sherman. It takes years to bring a boy to an adults’ perspective on life. Finding the songs of the Big Bands & their Singers was all it took. The Eddie Sherman Show was born from that perspective. And, though the young may have an appreciation for this music….only those of us who have really lived, loved, lost…. been down, out, or on top of the world, can truly identify with this catalogue of music…..the music of the great American composers, arrangers and singers of the early to mid 20th Century. The Eddie Sherman Show is an evening spent honoring a time when music meant something to its listeners. Take a trip back in time when the world was a gentler place and America still held that sense of pride and wonderment about herself that set her apart from every other place in this world of ours.

Vinyl Shockley
PERFORMANCE DATE: Friday, June 28th
TYPE: Rhythm & Blues
WEBSITE: www.vinylshockley.com
DESCRIPTION: The music of vinyl shockley has been called "blue-eyed soul with a Stax/Volt twist", and Ed's "smiling, pensive voice" "reminiscent of a young Van Morrison". As one reviewer wrote: "take the time to enjoy this honest music that soothes the soul and moves the feet." After successfully supporting others as a drummer, Ed Shockley, the guiding force behind vinyl shockley, decided to finally pursue his dream. As a singing drummer, Ed had been discouraged from attempting to "front" a band from behind the kit. "Different managers and record companies had asked me to move either to the keyboards or out front to more effectively lead a band, and I've tried it all. But nothing ever feels as good or as natural to me as singing and playing drums." So Ed went back to his roots to put together vinyl shockley. "There is a type of music that has always appealed to me, a little off-center, that reflects the influences that rhythm & blues and hillbilly music have on each other." The way they come together, in Ed's mind, is unique. Finding like-minded musicians to create this music proved to be a challenge. After several starts and stops Ed finally found a group of musicians that understood the flavor he was looking for and the band's first CD followed.

Rolling Stones (Exile on Main St., Sticky Fingers era.), Black Crowes and the Allman Brothers are easy comparisons and while Jamie acknowledges these artists as influences, he is just as easily found dialing in Bob Dylan, Sting, Bruce Hornsby, Coldplay, or Eric Clapton on his iPod.
