In the Flamingo Lounge with Rockabilly Greg7 Joulu 2024

Mr. Conrad

This week's guest, Mr. Conrad, joined Rockabilly Greg In the Flamingo Lounge on November 19, 2024. Mr. Conrad, a lifelong lover of blues, rockabilly, and swing, has been immersed in the music scene since his early teens. Inspired by legends like Big Joe Turner, Bill Haley, and Chuck Berry, he dove deep into the genre's history, discovering influences like T-Bone Walker.

A pivotal moment came in 1969 when he saw Jerry Lee Lewis perform, inspiring him to pick up the piano. After gaining experience in local bands, he joined the East Side music scene in Buffalo, jamming with renowned musicians like Eli Hall and Count Rabbit. This exposure honed his skills and instilled a deep understanding of the music's emotional core.

In the 1980s, Conrad formed Mr. Conrad and The Excellos, gaining local recognition. However, his ambition led him to Austin, Texas, where he collaborated with renowned musicians like Keith Ferguson. He later moved to Los Angeles, further solidifying his reputation as a talented guitarist and performer.

Now back in Buffalo, Mr. Conrad continues to share his passion for blues and rockabilly, captivating audiences with his energetic performances. His deep knowledge of the genre and his dedication to the music make him a true legend in the Buffalo music scene.
