The Performers

George Finizio is a singer/songwriter, a keyboard player, and guitarist who has performed extensively in various lounges professionally all over the Southern California area playing a very wide variety of music.

Now there's finally the opportunity to hear some of George's original music on the newly released CD "Something That Is Deep Inside" and there's much more original music on the way!

"Something That Is Deep Inside" includes a very wide variety of musical styles including pop, rock music, adult contemporary, easy listening, country, ballads, and blues songs, all with strong catchy melodies and popular themes. As a bonus, two Christmas songs are also featured on the CD.

Gary Frisbie has to be thanked for the following commentary:

"George Finizio has created a compelling journey through many emotions of musical expression ... From the rock anthem "A Place In The Sun" ... to the beguiling romanticism of "Bella Donna" ... he invites you to share in "Something That Is Deep Inside!"

John Jorgenson is one of the most remarkable musicians you could ever hope to meet. John's talents were truly exceptional years ago when we were recording and it's scary to think how incredibly good he is now. John plays a very wide variety of instruments extremely well, not to mention his very fine singing and songwriting abilities. John is a three time "Country Guitarist of the Year" award winner.

Not only is John one of the best guitarists on the planet, but he also plays bass, drums, banjo, mandolin, mandocello, lap top guitar, dobro, bassoon, saxophone, clarinet, sitar, and keyboards extremely well.

He is as talented a "natural" at what he does as anybody I've ever met. He has a remarkably innate ability to know exactly what fits best in the studio during a recording session. It is no wonder he is one of the hottest session musicians in the world and that he has earned tremendous respect in the industry that he has most certainly earned many times over - a very consummate professional!

John has toured extensively with Elton John and he performs and tours regularly with his band, "The Hellecasters." He was an original founding member of the Desert Rose Band.

John has also released several solo efforts including his latest CD "Emotional Savant" and "Crop Circles" with fellow Elton John guitarist Davey Johnstone.

It would be hard to imagine how God might be able to pack more musical talent in one body than he's already done with John. He is that good! Everything John touches seems to turn to gold and I hope that pattern will continue on my CD as well. It certainly did as far as his musical contributions were concerned.

John made numerous musical contributions to the songs on the CD: "Something That Is Deep Inside", "Bella Donna", "I've Been A Rainbow Over You", "A Place In The Sun", "I Should've Stayed In Bed Today",and "Je T'aime, I Love You".

Thanks for a great job, well done as always John!

Gary Frisbie is another extraordinary talented friend who's had a major impact with his contributions on the CD "Something That Is Deep Inside." He co-wrote two songs: the beautiful ballad, "I Remember Christmas" which features Gary's vocal, and "It's Over Now."

Gary is exceptionally creative in the studio as is evidenced in the songs "It's Over Now", "It Must Be Christmas", and his own beautiful ballad, "I Remember Christmas". Gary also added numerous vocal and harmony parts on several tracks of the CD which is another area in which he displays formidable talent! His contributions to the CD included the very masterful drum and bass parts that were especially evident in "It's Over Now" and "It Must Be Christmas." Gary has frequently demonstrated that he's a very consummate professional as well both for live performing, and in the studio!

Gary plays a wide variety of instruments being an excellent guitarist, vocalist, songwriter, and bass player. He also plays the keyboards, saxophone, clarinet, drums, and recorder.

Gary likes to get into the "nuts and bolts" of the guitar, being an excellent guitar craftsman too. He has built many guitars from scratch.

Gary is quite a live performer as well. Gary and I played as a duo a number of years back and it was quite remarkable how well he fit into many songs I performed, including a Beach Boys medley that we did totally "off the cuff" with excellent results. It sounded pretty full for two people doing all the performing!

Gary, many thanks for all the great contributions on the CD!
