John Van Beek – Music We Remember (Guitar & Vocals)
John shows up with his voice, guitar, and good humor to deliver a delightful blend of early jazz, swing, country, rock ‘n’ roll and other stylistic favorites of the 1920s-1950s; the 1960s are even popping up now and then in his repertoire. Performances are often enhanced by the use of a live recording and playback ‘looping’ device. Flexible options include acoustic, strolling entertainment, or amplified voice and guitar through a small, Swiss made acoustic amplification system.
Song set may include some of the following :
Dream a Little Dream of Me
Don’t Be Cruel
Just a Closer Walk With Thee
My Blue Heaven
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
I’m My Own Grandpa
Your Cheatin’ Heart
Besame Mucho
Tennessee Waltz
Bye, Bye, Love
How High the Moon
