"Two Bob's, four hands, twenty fingers, 100 years of Boogie." These two phenomenal Detroit native performers, both legendary in their experience and performing history, combine their talents to bring to their audience an evening of extraordinary jazz, blues, boogie, stride, and rock. Bob Seeley and Bob Baldori are both living connections to a musical heritage that is the backbone of American music.
Bob Seeley, a consummate artist, is known as one of the greatest boogie woogie and stride piano players in the world. He spent his formative years playing with Meade Lux Lewis, and along the way accompanied blues-great Sippie Wallace for several years.
Bob Baldori has been playing piano and harmonica since 1967 with the legendary Chuck Berry, and achieved fame with his own rock group, The Woolies. "Boogie" Bob Baldori has boogied with the best, also performing with Bo Diddley, Corky Siegel, and Muddy Waters, to name a few.
This concert is guaranteed to amaze and educate all who come aboard.
