Modafferi   ( Mo • da • free )


Singer-songwriter, Brian Modafferi, fronts the band with his powerful, soulful voice & guitar, rolling out great originals, rare covers, and groovy b-sides by much loved, but seldom heard artists. Writing at a young age, Brian is an inventive and clever musician and songwriter, with wide-open vulnerability and honesty within it. It feels both raw and very refined, all at once.


Tamaralee provides vocals that reflect her years of vocalizing with big bands, jazz combos, soul-funk party bands, swampy blues bands and indie rock groups, while keeping it down on the bass.


Todd Swenson, recent CNY resident, is a veteran of many musical situations on both the East and West Coast, where he played everything from Classical and World music to Rock and Jazz Fusion.


Drummer Scott Donahue adds a dynamic blend of energy, and experience to the creative mix of Modafferi.


Expect a soulful, empowering live show, with funky, melodic, lyrical rock and roll.
