BRUCE HORNSBY TO PERFORM AT EHX SPRING 2007
Framingham, MA – November 13, 2006 – EH Publishing announced today that the eighth annual Electronic House Expo (EHX) Spring 2007 will feature Bruce Hornsby in an exclusive late night concert, Friday, March 9 at 10:00pm, for attendees and exhibitors. EHX continues to provide an event with an atmosphere that maximizes attendees comfort, convenience and enjoyment. The event takes place March 8 – 10, 2007 (conferences March 6 – 10) at the Orange County Convention Center, Orlando, Florida. Hornsby, a three-time Grammy winner who's sold more than 10 million records since his multi-platinum debut in 1986, draws from a wide array of influences--among them jazz, pop, classical, bluegrass, rock, vaudeville and sounds both swinging and downright uncategorizable. His nine albums include The Way It Is (1986), Scenes From The Southside (1988), A Night On The Town (1990), Harbor Lights (1993), Hot House (1995), 1998's double CD Spirit Trail, his double live collection Here Come The Noisemakers (2000), and Big Swing Face (2002) and the recently released Halcyon Days.
Hornsby is also one of pop music's most in-demand side men, contributing to more than 100 records with artists ranging from Bob Dylan, Don Henley, and the Grateful Dead to Bob Seger, Bonnie Raitt, Béla Fleck, and Willie Nelson. His songs have been performed and/or recorded by a variety of artists including Willie Nelson, Don Henley, Tupac Shakur, Bob Dylan, Chaka Khan, Robbie Robertson, Huey Lewis, Sara Evans, and Leon Russell. And from September 1990 to March 1992, he became a part-time member of the Grateful Dead, performing with the group on more than 100 concerts in America and Europe.
“We’re thrilled to have Bruce Hornsby performing this exclusive concert at EHX,” stated John Galante, vice president of EH Events. “His sophisticated, eclectic style and virtuoso piano chops will make for a memorable evening at EHX. It’s a great way for attending dealers and exhibitors to reward themselves after a couple of days of intensive interaction and learning on the show floor and in conference sessions.”
EHX was named by Tradeshow Week as the fastest growing custom electronics trade event, serving the $16 billion custom electronics industry, with the spring show expected to generate record-breaking attendance numbers.
