Cyril Neville |
 | Date: Thursday, July 9, 2009 - 6:15pm Location: Fanny Hill
The youngest of the four Neville Brothers, Cyril is one of the last
great voices of New Orleans music. A bluesman for 40 years, this
talented percussionist and vocalist brings together a great sound of
funky R&B. Cyril is known as an artist who can interpret and cover
songs with a great style and energy, and in many cases, superior to the
original renditions of the songs. His original material bears witness
to the experiences, influences, and other forces
that have shaped who he is today and honors the musical and cultural traditions of his native New Orleans.
