Earl Okin takes classic Jazz and Bossa Nova, adds his own brand of comedy and pours the resulting mixture into a couple of secret ingredients including charm and just plain talent. The result is unique, wonderful and world class. No wonder he is in demand from the USA to Singapore and from Australia to Brazil itself!
"MASTER OF THE ART OF CABARET"
"Age does not matter for he appeals to all from 17 to senility...master of the art of cabaret." ***** The Scotsman' review at The Edinburgh Festival.
"Multi-talented musical supremo" Cabaret editor - TIME OUT (London).
"Can one be wickedly droll, swing like mad and touch your sultry heart?
Yes one can...and that one is Earl Okin." STEVE ROSS. Doyen of New York Cabaret performers.
'SIMPLY BRILLIANT'
"You are quite a genius you are - you have managed to find a niche I have never seen nor heard before - you are simply brilliant. Hard to categorize.
One must see you in person to "get you" - even though your musicianship is fantastic!!! Your guitar and especially piano playing is thrilling in all the genres!
One thing I gleaned from your performance is that one must "experience you" - live - you need an audience! Those little nuances you have in your "kit" needs people to experience them.. BUDDY BREGMAN (2008)
Don't miss your chance to see Earl Okin in Blackpool during our Showzam Festival. He will be appearing in Variety Notes at the Grand Theatre on Saturday 13th February.
