Comprised of
Western Massachusetts educators Mike Smith, Dave Fazio, and Bill DeSanty, “Good Acoustics” is a rock-solid
trio of seasoned vocalist and musicians with the versatility to perform
everything from vocal favorites by Crosby Stills & Nash, Eagles, and America
to rocking classics from Journey, Springsteen, and Steve Miller. They’ll even throw in a bit of country,
reggae, Motown, oldies, rap, & Irish tunes when the mood strikes! Their acoustic-style covers span hits from the
50s through today with an emphasis on the 70s & 80s. Mike, a music teacher from Longmeadow and
guitar virtuoso, has high tenor vocals reminiscent of Steve Perry and Sting. Dave,
a teacher in Agawam, handles the bass guitar with edgy vocals that bring to
mind those of John Mellencamp and Van Morrison. Bill,
who teaches music in Palmer, rounds out the trio. His drumming style combines the finesse of
Phil Collins and the power of Steve Gadd, while his vocal style is reminiscent
of James Taylor. These three performers have been tearing it up with many local
bands up and down the east coast for more than 30 years. In addition, “Good Acoustics” has also
been performing as tribute artists to Simon & Garfunkel and James Taylor
for the past 3 years. Now celebrating
their eleventh year together, the band rocks like they've never been apart!
