   About Otis
Otis (Craig Schoenbaum) Picked up his first guitar at age 7, and has yet to put it down. This singer/songwriter brings political issues to the fore front-- and with his crystal clear voice, the world's problems never sounded sweeter. Influences ranging from rock, soul, blues and reggae, audiences don't know whether to dance, protest or light up. Fronting an ever changing band consisting of some of the best musicians NYC has to offer, you never know WHO he is gonna pull out of his bag of tricks. You just have to come and see for yourself.

See Otis cover a classic from the Coming to America Soundtrack, at their CD release party.
