Sly Geralds Band

Sly Geralds is a singer/songwriter who has traveled the world with some of the most influential musical artists of our time. He has spent the last several years recording and sharing the stage with musical giants such as Maceo Parker, Al Green, Levon Helm, Richie Havens Cyndi Lauper, and Bob Dylan to name a few. He has put his many years of experience and musical stylings to seamlessly blend elements of blues, funk, soul and rock. Sly’s music gives a nod to the masters of roots music while still maintaining a contemporary feel. His time spent in New Orleans has influenced his writing, as has living in New York City for most of his life. Sly throws down an infectious groove driven by his thunderous bass and shows his talent on the Chapman Stick. Sly’s banter with the audience is equally impressive. He cajoles the audience into leaving their workday worries behind and joining him on the dance floor to “shake what their mama gave them” and entertaining the crowd by playing the hits.
You never know when Sly will break into a smoldering version of a “classic song” by Al Green, James Brown, The Rolling Stones or any number of blues, funk, rock, soul or jazz standards!
