July 31—Super-T
Audiencesmay know him as the front man for the Tyrone Smith Review or simply asthe Super-T, caped in brilliant blue. No matter. The result is anevening of classic rock, great and funky soul music, R & B. And, ofcourse, this music is all about groove, high energy, and dancing.
Foralmost 30 years, Super-T has toured the Southeast, playing clubs,college campuses and music fests and weddings, becoming a bona fidelegend in the process. How good is this band? Super-T has performed attwo inaugural balls, and last year, performed at Jenna Bush’s wedding.
If,in your younger days, he performed at your fraternity party or wedding,come relive your youth… or bring the kids to hear your music! You were cool. Really, you were.
