Paul Guzzone!! House Concert!!

Paul GuzzoneThe place I’m most familiar seeing Paul Guzzone is playing Bass for the Bacon Brothers (and a few times backing my friend Cindy Alexander).  At a house concert he was performing at last April, I made the mistake of buying a copy of his EP experiment 3 in 1.1.  I haven’t been able to get the CD out of my car, or the tunes out of my head since.

So when Paul arranged a house concert within driving distance it was a MUST ATTEND event.  For this show, Paul brought along his better half, Mary Ellen Bernard.  Paul writes and performs a style that to me is Classic Rock with a real East Coast accent.  It reminds me of the days when I discovered F.M. Radio, but with new and original tunes.  Unlike most bass players (who are closely related to zombies), Paul gets into his performance and actively entertains.  Paul brought a great set list for the evening and I left after the show feeling that he had really put on a Paul Guzzone performance.  I loved every minute of the show.

Paul’s plan this year is to release three songs every quarter as EPs instead of saving up a years worth of new songs and trying to get them recorded, edited, and mastered in one big bang.  The songs are released under the title 3 in 1, with releases four releases.  The first release was 3 in 1.1.  The second was 3 in 1.2 (I think you get the idea).  From posts on the internet, it looks like he is getting ready to release 3 in 1.3 as I am writing this.

I recommend checking out his songs “Dance While I Can” and “Last Night in Vegas” first.  You will want these in your library, trust me.

Arlene, who put on the show, is a wonderful hostess and just one nice lady.  I’ve gotten new ideas each time I’ve been to her house for a concert.
