The Collaboration Band is an extraordinary gathering of veteran musicians dedicated to the authentic playing of soul, r&b and Motown music. Each member brings years of experience and dedication to this music - each member is a master of his craft. Ms. Verceal Whitaker, former lead vocalist with the Platters, soars above a band where everybody sings, but her vocals are simply in a different category. Willie Miller lends the big pocket of his drumming plus lead and background vocals; On guitar and vocals (and exceptional on both), we have Jay King Lamar. Joshua Townsend adds his tasty keyboards and vocals; Alonzo Smith (aka Zo) provides vocals and the funky bottom. We've played on the biggest and smallest stages, for thousands and for handfuls. We know what works, what doesn't, and how to get the party started and keep it going. This is music meant to be heard and felt, and when Collaboration plays it, oh you're going To feel it, guaranteed. If you stay still during a Collaboration Band performance, you may want to check your pulse.
