Coldwell Banker First Realtors presents “Holidays in Ivory” on Saturday, December 17 at 7:00 p.m. at Gesa Power House Theatre. This year’s annual concert features crooner Johnny Boyd, an after party, and VIP seating options. All proceeds benefit Friends of Children of Walla Walla.
No one exemplifies modern-day crooning better than Johnny Boyd: smooth, romantic vocals; matinee idol charisma; classic gentleman’s style; and dynamic, irreverent performances. But it’s his fresh, emotive, all-original contributions to the Great American Songbook that will be his legacy.
A prolific songwriter, Johnny Boyd is renowned for his unique ability to seamlessly blend jazz, swing, pop, country, gospel and rock, bringing back the nostalgic charisma of a bygone era. He performs with a 5-piece band: Michael Elson – piano/B-3 organ; Keith Brush – bass/vocals; A.G. Donnaloia – guitar; Ji Tanzer – drums/vocals; and Roberto Medina – congas/bongos.
NPR aptly stated, “If Frank Sinatra and Johnny Cash had a love child, it would be Johnny Boyd.” The Washington Post heralded Boyd as “romantic,” The New York Daily News touted him as “smooth,” and The San Francisco Bay Guardian lauded him “sophisticated and fun.” Indeed, Johnny Boyd is all of this and more.
Johnny Boyd has released seven albums, recorded more than sixty original songs and written dozens more. He has also licensed numerous original songs for use in major motion pictures, television and gaming.
