Too Human will perform live at the North Adams Public Library
10:22AM / Wednesday, April 01, 2009
North Adams, Mass. - The musical group Too Human will perform live at the North Adams Public Library, Monday, April 27 at 6:30 pm in the libraries community meeting room.
Hailing from New York, both Ellen and Roger have had music in their lives from a very early age. Roger was studying accordion by the time he was 5 and Ellen was harmonizing by the age of 3. Over the years they both explored different musical genres and instruments, but what remained constant was singing, the song and the passion.
They eventually became professional songwriters in Los Angeles, on staff with publishing giant Warner/Chappell Music, where they had their songs covered by a broad spectrum of recording artists including Cher, Pat Benatar, Teddy Pendergrass, Martha Davis (of the Motels), Angela Bofill, Agnetha Foltskog (of ABBA), Anne Murray, Nancy Wilson, and Ramsey Lewis. And their songs have been heard on TV shows including Fame, General Hospital and As The World Turns.
Too Human with Bryan “Frankie” Rizzuto on upright bass will be performing jazzy bluesy originals and jazz standards from the American Songbook.
