Paul Richey, Solo Piano

Paul Richey, Piano

Paul Richey can more commonly be seen performing funk, soul, and afrobeat with his band, The Fusionauts, but he also plays “normal” jazz on a “normal” piano sometimes. Since this extremely extended 14 day lockdown has put a hold on many group activities, like playing with a band, he is obliged to perform as a solo pianist. No longer can he hide behind the drums when he skips a beat! No longer can he look upon the bassist, mouthing the words “where are we?” when he gets lost in the changes. Today, he has no one to blame but himself! Will he be able to pull it off? Please join him in this virtual concert and discover the answer for yourself while he plays completely normal jazz standards, non-standard jazz tunes, and some original compositions which can be considered jazz if you squint while you look at them.
