Guy Forsyth Band

St. Pat’s Day Celebration with Irish food and drink specials and GREEN beer! Guy Forsyth has busked on the streets of New Orleans and played guitar atop a mountain in Nepal. Forsyth has performed all over the world in the past 17 years of his career. He’s a force to be reckoned with onstage, a musical huckster who learned to work a crowd as a young actor. Whether he’s channeling the spirit of Louis Armstrong in his vocals, blowing a bad-ass harmonica or strumming a guitar — or playing a saw — he’s always full of passion. It’s a passion that should be experienced live, but this is undoubtedly the next best thing. Though he’s thoroughly imbued with the blues, Forsyth’s style is an amalgam of influences: folk, rock, jazz, punk, reggae, even Vaudeville and Tin Pan Alley — and whatever obscurities he was exposed to via the legendary syndicated radio program, The Dr. Demento Show. He absorbs it all, then filters it down to its essence — what he calls its medicinal roots — where it contains the most power. For Forsyth, that’s really what music is all about — the power to communicate, to heal.
