Buford Powers: Eclectic

Buford Powers is most notably known for his romantic baritone voice, performing a wide variety of traditional jazz standards, hits from Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and adult contemporary Pop Ballads. Eclectic was recently released in the USA. Buford Powers and his jazz trio, are now appearing in Oakland, California and available for corporate private functions and venues in the USA, Canada and Europe.

Genre: Jazz

Buford Powers has revived an era in music that has slumbered for some time, and has now been re-awakened with his velvet vocalizations of timeless standards.

His debut release Too Good To Be True invokes memories of a time past brought to the present by his thoughtful interpretations. The musicians in the band are internationally known, and have shared the stage with such notables as Ray Charles, Jimmy Smith, and Shirley Horn.

This baritone romantic is mature in his approach, and picks up the torch where luminaries like Johnny Hartman and Billy Eckstein left off.

Truly, this singer’s first foray is too good to be true. Watch for the new Cd release “Ecletic Soul” this Fall, 2006.
