BIOGRAPHY
From the music they play to the dinners they cook (keeping cardiologists all over New York City in silk shirts and cigars!), song-driven acoustic band Life With Them offers the very best of what they can give. And what better way to give that very best and bring the good vibes to you, the audience, than with a true medley of blues, funk, R&B and soul?
This Brooklyn-based trio works hard to bring intelligent, heartfelt lyrics backed up by solid musicianship and the pure, unadulterated joy of making the music they love! Each of the members are veteran musicians, having alternate experience as composers, lyricists, ensemble members, session players, and in some cases, recording engineers.
So, enjoy the music, and stay tuned for upcoming performances!
