BAZAAR CAFÉ CELEBRATES A TRIO OF SINGER-SONGWRITERS
A trio of recording artist will present a rotation of songcrafters at the Bazaar Café, a longtime listening room for original music. Entertainer and “Singer at Large” Johnny J. Blair will present his brand of “pop music with a twist,” influenced by Americana, psychedelia, New Wave, and gospel. Brian Wilson called Johnny “a virtuoso.” His current itinerary includes performing in assisted living homes for people with disabilities and dementia: “Music goes through the brain into places where math and language don’t reach. It heals and it makes a difference.” Johnny has worked with a range of artists—most prominently with Davy Jones and The Monkees. For his Bazaar set, Johnny will do songs from his recordings and tell stories “about Monkees, working with people in care homes, and life in the music industry.”
Uma Robin Mackey creates melodic pop music with a Celtic influence, described by one critic as “if Cher hired XTC to play an Irish wedding.” Her career has intersected with Al Stewart (“Year of the Cat”) and Train, and she sometimes collaborates with Johnny J. Blair.
EC Shaw started playing music at a very young age. Classically trained on the piano, he joined a rock band as a bassist at the age of 15. This band, made up of classmates, went on to find modest success touring the West Coast. From there EC found passion in music and began his path as a lifelong musician. He started writing on guitar and piano and his written well over 100 songs. When he’s not performing solo he goes out with his band, EC and the Conspirators (aka Ocean Beach Band).
