STEVE D’AGOSTINO TO PERFORM AT ROGER SHERMAN BALDWIN PARK


The Department of Parks and Recreation announces that Steve D’Agostino will be performing at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park on Wednesday, July 22 from 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM.
Steve D’Agostino has been performing for more than 20 years the songs from The Great American Songbook with an emphasis on the era from Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Bobby Darin and Tony Bennett. Steve began his musical training quite young. At the age of 8 he studied guitar and jazz guitar with Tony Perone and Sal Salvador. By the age of 14 Steve was playing guitar with the University of Bridgeport Big Band called Collage under the direction of Gary Riggerio.


Singing began at the age of 16 with his first band called Finesse back in the early 80’s where Steve transitioned from playing guitar to vocalists. Steve’s smooth phrasing on ballads and swinging style has taken him from coast to coast performing in Las Vegas at the Paris Casino Hotel to Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Ct.


Steve maintains the tradition of this music today adding his own flair without impersonating any of the great artists that came before him. Many say that he sounds like a cross between Sinatra and Darin.


Now is your chance to see this great performer in your own backyard in Greenwich.
Bring your family, a blanket, and a picnic dinner and enjoy a wonderful night of music under the stars.


Other Wednesday night performances are:
July 29 – Gunsmoke - Country
August 5 – Bearcats - Jazz
August 12 – In Harmony – 50’s & 60’s Do Wop
