Porkchop Meyer
Ed "Porkchop" Meyer has been performing for twenty years in a variety of styles and configurations. He has played private parties, lounges, clubs, five star hotels, and parties from New York to Bangkok, where he played for the Queen of Siam and the Sultan of Brunei.
He works the eighty eights with a strong sense of rhythm and his voice has a textured, evocative edge that is equally at home with pop tunes, blues, ballads, jazz standards, and country tunes.
Ed has played with some of the best sidemen in the business, including two years with Jeff Watkins (formerly with James Brown) and another two years with Elliott Fikes (formerly of Little Anthony and the Imperials).
Currently, he is playing solo gigs and leading the "Porkchop Meyer Band" as well as playing with other local groups.
Ed has shared the stage with a smorgasbord of amazing men and women you've probably never heard of. You should hire him.
