Longevity in the entertainment business is an attribute worth celebrating. While the industry is often focused on brand-new, younger artists, it’s the performers who have been out there for decades that are really the cornerstone of the touring industry. Of course, it’s also helpful if the music that they’ve created has become popular standards.
Gene Cornish - along with Felix Cavaliere, Eddie Brigati and Dino Danelli, created The Young Rascals in 1964 and became a smash-hit single recording and touring act. What Gene brought to the table was a unique spin and approach on the guitar and - of course - harmonica! Imagine “Groovin’” without a harmonica, it’s impossible. Thanks, Gene.
Gene joins me for a chat about the string of shows he is currently performing with Felix Cavaliere & Gene Cornish's Rascals. We also discuss the recent loss of his good friend and musical compatriot, Dino Danelli, what fans can expect seeing when he and Felix perform together and he shares some insight on the industry after 60 years in showbusiness.
