- ABOUT THE MUSIC -
BRIAN FITZY (Philadelphia):
Blending elements from a variety of genres and decades, Brian Fitzy falls somewhere between Daryl Hall and Jamiroquai by way of A Tribe Called Quest. Vocalist, electric violinist, guitarist, beat-boxer. Bringing these elements together live with looping technology, the result is soul-pop with undertones from the golden age of hip hop.
Recent performances include the Clark Festival, Trenton Avenue Arts Festival, Lincoln Financial Field, The Fillmore, Wells Fargo Center Cadillac Grille, 4th of July on the Ben Franklin Parkway, Pepsi Stage, National Harbor Maryland, Franklin Institute, Borgata Casino Atlantic City, and World Cafe Live.
"Brian Fitzy is a wonder... People react to his playing with amazement." - Music Fan (Phillipines)
"Brian, you're a king, baby." - RipTen
"...A required listen!" - Back2Pluto
MIKE WHY (Pittsburgh)
Pittsburgh area beatboxer, vocalist, and "maker of funny sounds" one man band without the band Mike Why returns from 10,000 miles of touring for his homecoming show.
An emulated combination of spectacular drum grooves, rich bass, authentic "voicestruments", and passionate, energetic singing made only through imagination and microphone -- looped live to create driving originals, popular music from today, and that of decades past.
2014 saw Mike release his debut EP, "Run My Mouth", hit Top 3 on the ReverbNation Charts, play the Hard Rock Las Vegas, mainstage at the Y2K International Live Looping Festival, play venues from coast to coast, and much more.
Music. Energy. 100% LIVE. 100% HUMAN. That's Mike Why.
