Songwriters: Joe Terlizzi, Bill Frey, & Matt Hannam
Joe Terizzi. Joe comes from Jersey City, NJ and has been playing guitar since the age of 10. He started in rock bands in his teens and went through an acoustic period in his early twenties after graduating from Stevens Tech. As a member of Hobo King, he and friend Ed Bank opened for some well known folk acts of the day. But he decided to pursue a career as a chemical patent specialist and put his songwriting chops on the back burner. This job allowed him to travel the world on business and live in New York City for many years. Musical interests eventually won out and in 2012, he decided to release a CD of original songs by playing all the instruments and recording it at home. Since then, he has self-released two more CDs and recently finished his fourth. He spends his winters in Fort Myers and for summers, he recently relocated to West New York, NJ. He enjoys being a member of ACMA and is thrilled to be invited to open up for Jann. Look for his new CD, “Thankful”, soon available on most musical platforms.
Bill Frey started playing guitar/harmonica and song writing in 1960’s. Influenced by Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, Chuck Berry, Harry Leahey, Jimmy Smith, Kenny Burrell, Bob Dylan, John Pilla, Paul Butterfield, and BB King, his musical style remains eclectic but blues based. He has recorded and played venues in NYC, Philadelphia, up and down the Jersey Shore, the Hamptons, Boston and Burlington, Vermont. His career has included stints with The Floyd Morgan Blues Band, The Bristol Flames and for the past 30 years leading the Deep Freyed Blues collective.
Matt Hannam is a covers artist and songwriter who performs as a solo artist and with The Collective. Matt is a former school teacher who has worked in the Telecommunications industry for the past 21 years. He has been a member of the ACMA since the founding year and is a former board member of both the ACMA and Hope by Song.
