Saturday, December 13 — Rhythm is the heartbeat of music, and few musicians control that pulse like Lorenzo Sanford. Join us for a night of dynamic, world-class musicianship from a man who has backed the biggest icons in the industry.
A Resume That Reads Like a Hall of Fame
When you look at the list of artists Lorenzo Sanford has performed with, it reads like a “Who’s Who” of American music history. We are talking about legends like Stevie Wonder, Peabo Bryson, Jennifer Holliday, and Melba Moore.
This isn’t just a drummer; this is a musician who has been trusted to hold down the groove for the absolute best in the business. On Saturday, December 13th, he brings that same world-class precision and energy to our intimate stage.
More Than Just a Drummer
While he is a master of percussion, Lorenzo Sanford is a true multi-hyphenate artist. He holds a degree in music composition and is a gifted vocalist in his own right—he even toured nationally as a singer in “The Sam Cooke Story.”
His artistry knows no genre boundaries. Whether it is the complex improvisation of jazz, the soul-stirring power of gospel, or the storytelling of musical theater (working under acclaimed director Kenny Leon), Lorenzo does it all. He has graced the stage of Carnegie Hall and toured internationally, absorbing musical influences from around the globe.
The “Lorenzo Sanford Experience”
What can you expect from his show at The Velvet Note? A journey. Lorenzo is known for his “eclectic artistry,” blending his diverse background into a performance that is vibrant, soulful, and technically dazzling.
Seeing a drummer of this caliber lead a band in our “acoustic living room” is a special experience. You don’t just hear the rhythm; you feel it.
Don’t miss this chance to see a local legend who has played the world’s biggest stages.
