I Sing Jazz: Raleigh Music Photography

In my pre-family days,  I played bass guitar in a few rock bands and was active in music scene in Chapel Hill area.  I have always been an avid music fan no matter what genre.  North Carolina definitely offers some great musical talent.  Amy Hancock is no exception.  I have known Amy for almost 30 years now since the time we met at Northern Nash Senior High School just outside of Rocky Mount, NC.   It was such a treat for me that she recently hired me to grab some live performance images to help her to promote her jazz singing career.  In high school, she voted the most talented female in our senior class. If only our classmates could see her now, like a fine wine she and her singing skills have aged well.  Check out AmyHancockMusic.com for more information on this great jazz vocalist.

Amy would be the first one to admit that any great jazz vocalist needs some strong jazz musicians behind them in order to be successful.  Here are some shots of some members in the band that night that provided the music for Amy’s vocals.

Greg Tyson – Trumpet

Ben Palmer:  Bass

Marc Getter : drums  (I appreciate your patience with the flash going off all night. You did not miss a beat!)
