“In The Pocket” is one of the most dynamic bands in the Southeast region. From Beach and Soul to Funk, R&B and Jazz Standards, “In The Pocket” covers a wide range of hit songs all night long. Their tight “in the pocket” sound is a favorite for private parties, wedding receptions and corporate events and their energy, spontaneity and interaction with the crowd keeps the party going with a continuous, contagious groove.
One of “In The Pocket’s” numerous selling points is their superb lead vocals, backed by close-knit harmonies. The band features two of the most dynamic lead vocalists in the Carolinas, Robyn Springer and Brandon Stevens.
Sony recording artist, Robyn Springer, has had the pleasure of sharing the international stage with such artists as George Benson, Herbie Hancock and Kirk Whalen. Robyn is a frequent headliner at Middle C Jazz Club in Charlotte, NC. Robyn’s most recent song releases of “If I Can’t Have You” and “Crazy Bout You” sit atop of The Official Indie R&B Chart while other songs like “December” and “Anywhere You Wanna Go” continue to receive regular airplay on Sirius XM radio.
Brandon Stevens has been thrilling audiences across the Southeast and abroad with his smooth tenor voice. As a former member of legendary Detroit Soul group, Chairmen of the Board, Brandon completed two critically-acclaimed UK tours. The Chairmen’s 2017 album “Words Left Unsaid” featured songs written by Melvin and Mervin Steals, the twin songwriting brothers who penned The Spinners’ classic “Could It Be I’m Falling In Love.” Brandon shines on the lead vocals for “All I Need Is You Tonight” and “Each Morning I Wake Up”.
In The Pocket’s core group has been together for over twenty years and includes Grammy nominated producer and songwriter, Rodney Shelton, who co-wrote and produced Robyn Springer’s current Sony hit, “Crazy Bout You”, as well as Keith Washington’s platinum record, “Kissing You”, which after 20 years is still rocking the airwaves! Returning original members include Larry Farber on keyboards, Tim Gordon on saxophone, Joe Miers on bass, Steve Mcguirt on drums and Greg Cagle on guitar.
So for your next event, plan on the band with the experience and sound to keep you listening, dancing and fully entertained… call soon to reserve your booking and give your event the sound that is… “In The Pocket”!
Entertainment so memorable that hundreds of people are still cheering from the stands.
