Tyree Glenn Jr.

"The Ambassador of Funky Rhythm and Blues"!

Music to Make your "Hip....Hop"!!

Hello Everybody,

Please allow me to introduce myself to you!! My name is Tyree Glenn Jr. and I would like with this e-mail, to send you some "Up-Date Information" on my "Vintage R & B Show" based here in Germany for possible "Concerts" in England in the future! (www.tyree-glenn.com) I am very interested in perhaps doing a "Small Tour" in England, especially, the "Northern Soul R & B Club Scene", as I was informed, that a song that I recorded many many years ago, is being played very often in the clubs up there-"Yesterday" from Tyree Glenn Jr.

As for information about myself, I am an "Afro-American Singer, Musician-Tenor Sax 🙂 , TV and Film Actor and Entertainer" originally from New York City and was very involved in the R & B Scene back in the late Fifties and Sixties. Living in Germany now, I have been performing my show, based here in the "Essen-Düsseldorf" area of Germany, throughout Europe and Internationally now for the past 30 years and I might add with the same members of my band! (By the way, my father, Tyree Glenn, was the very well known former Musical Director and World Famous Jazz Trombonist with Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway among others!) I have performed many times at the CeBit in Hannover in the past for Siemens, Nokia, Deutsche Leasing etc. and I have also performed several times in Abu Dhabi in the last few years: At the Nokia Jazz Festival in 2006 and at the European PGA Golf Tournament in 2007 for IMG and both times with much success! I have also performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland several times, the last time was on the show with my good friend, Mr. BB King!

The possible formations of the "Tyree Glenn Jr. R & B Party" are mainly the "5 Piece" Group. (The 7 Piece Group + 2 Horns and the 9 Piece Group + 4 Horns are the formations that are on the Videos, the CD and the YouTube Video and are mainly for larger Events and Festivals!) A part of my show has been devoted to the music of some good friends of mine in America, the "Original Blues Brothers Band" and my good friend, Maceo Parker! I perform at many Clubs, Marketing Events, Galas and Open-Air Festivals etc. here in Germany and Internationally!

I am including the link to my latest video on YouTube of my performance at the Sutter Group Gala in Essen. I hope that you will enjoy it!
