Details:
A Blisters show displays expert musicianship, unique excitement and some extreme passion. Centered around singer/pianist/song stylist Bobby Gangloff, the band bodes well to this New Orleans flavored barrelhouse piano pounder.
Bobby grew up in the Saratoga Springs area of upstate New York. There, he attended The State University of New York at Albany, and earned his Bachelor of Arts (Magna Cum Laude) majoring in electronic music composition studying under electronic music pioneer Joel Chadabe and pianists Findley Cockrell and Bill Jones. During these years he performed in the trendy downtown Albany Lark Street area, a haven for artists, musicians and characters. Upon graduation of Albany State, Bobby moved to South Florida. It was here that he began his obsession with New Orleans music. Go figure! Soon he became a student of Dr. John, Professor longhair, and Tom Waits. He has shared the stage with such big names as Arlo Guthrie, Rick Danko, Queen Ida, Kris Kristofferson and Peter Tork of The Monkeys. Bobby also serves as Bandleader, Ringmaster, and Quarterback.
More than just a jazz band, The Blisters ''in your face'' style of New Orleans party music has people dancing in their seats and on their feets. Saxophonist and dance master Ron McCode''s wireless microphone allows him to roam through the crowd and lead the big parade to the dance floor. Ron was recently featured on BET as an up and coming artist.
Drummer Todd Walker''s unique and sophisticated playing is well respected though out North America. Todd has studied with Ed Shaughnessy (Tonight Show Band) and has been written up in Modern Drummer Magazine. In 1994 he won the Pearl Players Drum Challenge in Vancouver. He is a ''Drummers Drummer'' as a lot of them come to study him with amazement.
Percussionist Nelson Colon, ''The Black Angel'', was born in Borenquen Beach, Puerto Rico. He is the son of famed Blues singer Gladis Colon. As a child he studied with Mambo great Jovany Hivalgo. Nelson also sings harmonies with Bobby and adds greatly to the bands spiritual wellbeing.
If you like good music, entertainment and something different than the average band, then come and give the blisters a try. Be sure to get a hold of the new CD ''Bobby and The Blisters/Saving the World Before Last Call''. Let''s have some fun!
