About Frederick
Frederick is a nationally recognized vocalist, percussionist, and songwriter with over 37 years of performance experience. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Frederick began singing and playing music instruments at the age of ten. Inspired by percussionist like Tito Puente, Sheila E, Ron Powell and other Latin and African percussionist this prompted him to purchase his first set of LP Congas and Bongos. Frederick considers himself a finesse percussionist because he gets to dance, sing, and do his signature spin all while just having fun playing his toys, as he refers to them. Frederick has established himself as an all around entertainer for any occasion. His voice drips with soul on both originals and covers. He creates Latin percussions that are intricately woven with passion and vitality, and his connection to the music is deeply expressive, exuberant and rich. Frederick also has a stage presence that brings excitement to any function. He is a veteran of stage and comfortable in the spotlight, singing his favorite tunes from George Benson, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra, and Johnny Mathis, To Louis Armstrong. Frederick has also played in some of Cleveland’s hottest jazz clubs, opened and performed with such world-renown acts as “Kim Sax man Waters, Cleveland’s own Horns & Things, Forecast and Moments Notice, to name a few. To add to his credits, Frederick has performed with some of Ohio’s premier wedding and society bands, such as Eugene Ross & Company, Night Bridge, Art Newman Company Orchestra, and Dennis Samsa & Night Breeze. Working with these organizations afforded Frederick the opportunity to perform in all aspects of the music business when ever possible. Weather Frederick is seducing an audience with an ultra smooth ballad, or using his silky baritone to funk up a party, his performances are sure to be moving, entertaining and not to be missed. Frederick is pleased to announce that he is available to perform in various venues to include festivals, weddings, lounges, and private parties. The basics of the band can range from piano to jazz trio, small dinners parties to an eight piece party band. Upon request I can provide a song list that offers music selections for the contemporary listeners, oldies, R&B, Big Band, standard to Motown.
