The Persuasions + FM GOLD — live event
The Persuasions were born in Brooklyn in 1962, singing A cappella under corner streetlights and in subway corridors. Their voices powerfully echoed through their urban terrain, weaving gospel, soul, early rock and jazz into melodic five-part harmonies. Since being discovered by Frank Zappa, The Persuasions have recorded 26 albums to date featuring their uniquely re-imagined arrangements of music by Frank Zappa, U2,The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan and Barenaked Ladies. Their fans are consistently treated to a vocal buffet of soulful, harmonic and joyful tracks free of any instrumental enhancements, with the exception of their critically acclaimed masterful collaboration with Canadian rock group, Barenaked Ladies in 2016. A stand out on that album is the instrumentalized version of their classic hit, "Good Times" hailed by many as a 'summer feel good, laying on the beach, driving with the Top down song FM GOLD LIVE is a quintet of ace rockers, who are in love with the best hit and LP rock of the Seventies!
