I had the chance to see my friend and fellow sax player, Ray Myers, perform at a new venue last night. The Ray Myers Band did its first show at the James Street Café in Burnaby. The place was packed, and the dance floor was jumpin’, as Ray kept the hits coming for 4 solid hours.
Ray’s show is a high-energy, R&B dance show, which makes it almost impossible for you to stay in your seat. The music is infectious, and Ray’s arrangements are impeccable. The sound samples, while capturing the musicianship, of course can’t capture the energy of seeing a live show. With Ray, you have to see him, to really get the true picture of what a great showman he really is.

My Path Led Me across Ray Myers about 17 yrs ago While working In a Dinner/Dance Club in New Westminister B.C. I have Been a Avid Fan Of Jazz since first hearing George Benson in my brother In-law,s 510 Datsun in the mid 70,s.I have Followed Closely The Likes of David Sanborn, Earl Kulg,George Benson, Thomas Scott, To name a few of My Favorite Artists. But all that being said Ray Myers Live in Person Stands alone as my all time Favorite Artist. If you Have a Chance to See Him Play I am sure he will impress you as well. We are so fortunate To have Talents of him and his Band So Close to Home Here On the West Coast.
