He was the winner of MTV’s “Amazingness” television talent/variety show and has performed on stage with numerous Grammy winners and Rock and Rock Hall of Fame inductees.

The band is noted for merging influences from different genres of music, including rock-a-billy, jazz, post-punk, folk, Afro-Latin, and the blues.

Friday night’s performance, the second of 10 “Feel Good Fridays” concerts, will begin at 7:30 p.m. Those planning on attending should bring lawn chairs of blankets to enjoy the show. Concessions will be available and Fountain Park falls under Van Wert’s DORA district.
