Street Corner Preachers

My Dad has been singing and playing the guitar for as long as I can remember. Shortly before we moved from New York, my Dad would be seen playing at Shandon Court and other local restuarants and bars. When we relocated to North Carolina he decided to take another leap foward with his music. He now plays in a number of restaurants around the Concord/Charlotte area. If you are ever around Johnny Bruscos, The Wine Room, Old Stone Vino, or many other restaurants in the area, and you see a large group of New Yorkers cheering on the guy behind the mic... thats probably my family :)

Now-a-days my Dad can be seen playing with a new band called the Street Corner Preachers. These four guys each have an amazing talent and they really sound great together! Private parties, events, and an all around good time are their specialites. Before their practice we took a few shots for their website and some other promotional things. Not too shabby if you ask me.. :)
