Aint That A Kick In The Head Aint That A Kick In The Head
I have played in Jazz and Dance bands all my life and even had my own Rock band, but its only in the last 5 years or so that I have really got back in to the sounds of the Rat Pack era and Frank Sinatra and gone solo. I cant believe the success I have had and how popular I have been. Whether I am doing a pure Sinatra set or a mix of Sinatra, Dean Martin with a little Matt Monro and Tony Bennett thrown in, I still get a kick out of seeing people enjoy something I do because I love doing it, not because its my jobBand/artist history
There is full bio on my website if you really want my life story and inside leg measurement, please visit www.stevegetz.co.ukHave you performed in front of an audience?Only ever play live, had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the studio to record my album "to be frank". I had Laryngitis recently but had to perform at a wedding in a large hotel, I couldnt cancel and let them down. I managed to warm my voice up and thought I could just pull off the hour I had been booked for, and then disaster the other entertainment didnt turn up. I ended up doing two hours and got a ten minute standing ovation from a packed audience and all the hotel staff, it was a special moment, I had saved the day, pulled off the gig of a life time and they have loved it. I felt about ten feet tall that day.
Your musical influences
You would probably expect me to say Paul McCartney and John Lennon, well it is Paul McCartney and John Lennon so I wont disappoint you ! Of course I am influenced by the great man himself Frank Sinatra and the whole Rat Pack era.Anything else?
There are many acts like mine and they headline as tribute acts, I am not a tribute act, I am Steve Getz. My voice is my talent, I am not a lookalike or a soundalike, I am just me. I interpret the songs I sing my way and sing them the way I think they should be sung and I hope I do them justice and that true greats like Franks Sinatra would approve. You'll find a free download here and more samples on my website and I am sure once you have listened to them you will know I sing from the heart, I enjoy what I do and I hope that in sharing my music with you in this way, then one day you may just venture out and experiene the sounds of swing and the big band live, the way it should be heard.
