Michael Kaeshammer
Tickets $29
Colonial Theater/Call 522-0471
Some guys have all the luck. That phrase certainly comes to mind when considering boogie-woogie and jazz pianist, vocalist, and composer Michael Kaeshammer. As a 13 year old he discovered boogie woogie & stride piano as played by Fats Waller and Pete Johnson. A piano playing jazz prodigy as a teenager, he has matured into a singer and songwriter of real skill and creative imagination. He also sings blues and jazz. He is noted for his polished but warm live shows. Factor in boyish good looks and it almost seems unfair.
