Renditions in April 2007

The month of April witnessed the return of an old friend. Our new keyboardist, Gary, was called away on personal business for a few days so we rang up our former piano man, Ernesto, and he just happened to be in Chicago. He was kind enough to fill in for us on very short notice at Bertucci’s in Highwood on April 20th. Even though his keyboards had a bit a dust on them (they actually did), he turned in a great performance for us and it was really fun to see him. Gary is going to be playing with New Colony 6 (or “The Colony” as he calls them) on Independence Day so Ernesto will be filling in for us again at our outdoor show on the 4th in Clarendon Hills.

Gary was back on Friday at Ki’s and his NC6 bandmate, Mark, stopped out again and jammed with us on our last set. He sounded awesome, as always.

With the Broadway success of “Jersey Boys”, we’ve decided to add a few more Four Seasons songs to our repertoire. Jerry is now singing “Sherry” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You”. We’ve also added “When Will I Be Loved” for Kristi. If there are songs you’d like to hear, drop us a line.

Our Rendfriend, Rob, took some great photos at Ki’s for us and we’re posting them here in this month’s blog. We hope you see yourself!

We are looking forward to several upcoming outdoor shows this summer. It’s sooner than you think (that warm summer weather was already upon us this weekend), so check out our Calendar Page. All the shows are listed with a map link.

Thanks again from The Renditions and see you in May!

Rock on with Aplomb!!
