About this Event
Jimmy Vivino
Although I’m proud to say I am currently a member of Blues Rock pioneers Canned Heat and co-producer of our latest release “Finyl Vinyl,” there’s just too much to list as far as played with this one played with that one. But in the end, I will list the people of importance pertaining to my growth as a musician.
Yes, I’ve worked in every form of media in the business from Movies to TV to Broadway to Radio to Records to Concerts…all the way down to funky little clubs. After all, I always say “I’m just a Bluesman with a job.”
One thing I did learn over 60 plus years as a musician was how to work. And I did and still am. Nothing beats playing in live music venues and meeting people. I’m just gonna list my close friends (who are really family) and mentors who taught me the “ways.”
Levon Helm, Phoebe Snow, Al Kooper, John Sebastian, James Cotton, Joe Louis Walker, Hubert Sumlin, Jimmie Vaughan,Johnnie Johnson, Laura Nyro, Odetta, Lowell Fulson, Son Seals, Donald Fagen, Darlene Love, Felix Cavaliere, Barry Goldberg,Nick Gravenites, Canned Heat with Fito de la Parra, Warren Haynes and just about anyone else who passed through NYC and needed a band that could play the Blues, Soul, Real Rock’nRoll and R&B.
Being involved with the Conan O’Brian TV show for 30 years, has only deepened my experience and contact with people who stepped out of my record collection and into my life, and for that I am truly grateful!
