Craig Scott Entertainment Welcomes Matthew Friedman and Uptown Sounds

Feb. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Craig Scott Entertainment, the New York metropolitan area’s preeminent provider of musical entertainment, announces the addition of Matthew Friedman and Uptown Sounds to its exceptional roster of top-notch bands. Friedman, who for three years was “The Piano Man” in Billy Joel’s award-winning musical “Movin’ Out”, now shows off his unique talent and great voice as the front man of this versatile ensemble.

Starting at six pieces - drums, bass, guitar, keyboards and backup vocalists - the band can grow to accommodate any venue or kind of event, and can cover a wide range of musical styles – 50s and 60s, Jay-Z to Journey, Lady Gaga to The Cure - and, of course, Billy Joel.

“I’m so excited to be working with this talented group of musicians,” said Scott Hornak, CEO of Craig Scott. “Matt has received such great reviews from the national press and now being able to enjoy this caliber of entertainment at your wedding or event is truly amazing.”

Matthew Friedman is also available through Craig Scott Entertainment to perform an exclusive evening of greatest hits from Billy Joel and Elton John, backed by members of the “Movin’ Out” band and, if available, Billy Joel's own touring band.
