These talented musicians were all associated with the legendary artist/singer Tony Bennett. As members of Bennett’s touring and recording quartet they travelled the world with him and experienced his complete artistry night after night on concert stages around the world, on television, and in the recording studio.
* Donna Byrne, vocals
Tony’s fondness for Donna’s singing was the genesis of these associations and she was also called upon to open a number of Tony Bennett’s shows.
* Tim Ray was his final musical director/pianist.
* Gray Sargent was Mr. Bennett's guitarist for 24 years
* Marshall Wood was his bassist for 11 years.
Eric Jackson, host of GBH’s Eric in the Evening, will host this event and will moderate a conversation with the musicians following the 8pm performance.
