Performing “Nights Over Egypt” with Sy Smith at the Lewitt Lounge at NAMM 2013 (Video)
Thanks to our brother, Tim Scott Jr. (drummer for The Foreign Exchange), I was able to get my hands on full performance videos of Sy’s performance in the Lewitt Lounge at NAMM 2013. Let me just say up front, that I was having a BLAST on stage with these kats whom I met no more than a half hour than we actually set foot on stage to put on a show… Hell, I wasn’t even supposed to be ON the show, but that’s how things work out sometimes. Anyway, please enjoy myself on keys, Lemar Carter on drums, Terron Crayton on bass, Erick Walls on guitar, and of course Sy Smith saingin’ her ass off as we loosened up and rocked out for the crowd that gathered in the lounge for us.

Multi-Instrumentalist/Producer Zo! is Detroit-area born and raised, Lorenzo Ferguson.
Music was always present in and around the Ferguson house, which led to Zo! taking piano lessons at age 6… which he absolutely despised. The idea of working toward a Major League Baseball career served as the greatest inspiration through his teenage years much more so than the concept of practicing music. After his parents consistently pushed and encouraged him to stick with music, Zo! discovered a newfound passion by teaching himself how to play piano by ear by age 11. Zo! got his production start in 1992 when his parents brought home a Proteus MPS keyboard and a Brother PDC100 sequencer for him to figure out. Since then, he has emphasized the use of live instrumentation as the blueprint for his music while constantly looking to expand his sound with each album release.

Both of you along with an awesome guitarist & drummer performing a beautiful rendition of a classic! That put a smile on my face before I go to sleep! Sweet!
Thank y’all…!!
