The sounds of accomplished soloist, songwriter, guitarist and entertainer Lipbone Redding will be the next highlight during the Winter Park/Fraser Valley of Commerce-sponsored, family-friendly High-Note Thursday concert next week.
Redding, a former subway musician and Southern gentleman, is known for the variety of sounds he makes with his lips, especially as a trumpet. He is said to be “the jazz, blues, jam and soul version of a human beat-box.”
After just a couple hours playing near a subway platform in New York City, he discovered he could make more money playing acoustic guitar and singing than he could at a “regular” job.
