Overview

I started out singing in 1970 with a 5 piece band in the UK, progressing to playing with the Tony Evans band at the Hammersmith Palais with a 16 piece Orchestra. Fronted a wedding band from 1980 to 2013 in Canada, doing all the crooners, latin American dance, country, pop, British invasion, Italian clasics, Elvis, Englelbert, Tom Jones, disco, and vintage Rock and roll. I can do Solo, Duo and Trio gigs depending on your venue. Now due to the ever changing music industry, I do a lot of legions,Specialty dance venues,Retirement homes, 600 plus dinner banquets, and corporate functions. I play keys,guitar and drums, however ,I use pro backing tracks to enhance the full band sound and experience.

About

Im 67 years old. Have been playing in bands since I was 12 years old. Was born in Italy/Sicily. Raised in England, and emmigrated to Canada in 1981. Formed my own 5 piece band in 82, playing mostly big weddings and banquets. Folded the 'Colin Re Band' in 2003 due to band members not wanting to keep up with changing times in music. Decided to join the Euroband as a trio playing drums a lead vocals. Lasted 10 years, and have been a solo act since 2013, sometimes adding one or 2 more musisians dependin od customer needs and or prefferences.
