Akie Bermiss Trio w/ Candice Corbin
July 20
7:30-9:00pm

Akie Bermiss, Andrew “Dizzy” Gillespie and Dan Asher played in 2018 and were FANTASTIC. Rain cut the crowd down a bit and we can’t wait to have them back. Don’t miss them.

BIOGRAPHY: Akie Bermiss is a pianist, composer, and singer living and working in Brooklyn, NY. He is a graduate of Bard College with degree in music composition. While there he also studied American Music (tin pan alley, Broadway musicals, and jazz) and writing (wrote some bad poetry and called it good). Among other things he is also the author of a children’s book (“I Hate to Be Sick” — out on Scholastic), a lover of science fiction and fantasy novels, a huge fan of cigars, and he takes his bourbon: neat.

Akie made a name for himself with his signature sound – a voice that blends R&B, jazz, hip hop, and funk effortlessly. Akie has unique skills in composing and songwriting, and, not least, great ability to work with and enhance the sounds of other musicians and singers.

Akie is currently playing with Lake Street Dive, Brooklyn-based FutureSoul band Aabaraki, the Screaming Headless Torsos, Miri Ben-Ari (the hip hop violinist), rap sensation Soul Khan, and also working with his own band, the Akie Bermiss Trio.
