New York State of Mind

Some folks like to get away,
Take a holiday from the neighborhood,
Hover flying to Miami Beach or to Hollywood.

Yeah, but I'm shaking the Greyhound
On the Hudson River line.
I'm in a New York state of mind.


Seen all the movie stars,
The fancy cars,
And the limo scenes have been so high.
Oh, in the Rockies under the evergreen song.

I don't know what I'm needing.

But that was so easy,
Just living day by day.

Oh, the Daily News.
You know it comes right down to reality.


And it's so fine for me
Because I've let it slide

I don't know what I'm needing.
And I don't want to waste more time.
Because I'm in New York.

El título de Piano Man del Reino Unido lo han ostentado durante mucho tiempo Elton John, Jools Holland y Jamie Cullum. En las últimas cinco décadas nadie más se ha acercado ni remotamente... ¡hasta ahora! Recién salido de su gira con las entradas agotadas "Let The Good Times Roll", Tom Seals -"posiblemente el futuro del jazz y el blues"- tiene el mundo en la punta de los dedos. Su virtuosismo como solista, sus excelentes dotes para la improvisación y su voz personal han llevado a destacadas figuras del sector a aclamarlo como el mejor pianista y vocalista de boogie woogie y blues del Reino Unido. Con apenas veinticinco años, Seals ya ha ofrecido conciertos con las entradas agotadas por todo el mundo, incluido el legendario Ronnie Scott's de Londres, una actuación deslumbrante en el Birdland Jazz Club de Broadway, en Nueva York, y trabajos junto a Jools Holland. Apariciones destacadas: 'Gregory Porter & Friends' del Cheltenham Jazz Festival 'Boogie Woogie & Blues Spectacular' de Jools Holland Birdland Jazz Club, Nueva York British Summer Time - Hyde Park Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club Gisburne Park Pop-Up Montreux Jazz Festival Cropredy Festival The Steinway Two Pianos Festival Glastonbury Newark Showground "Drive-In" Blenheim Palace En su curso, Tom desvela los secretos que hay detrás de su forma de tocar -mostrándote cómo dar swing a los estándares al piano, construir líneas auténticas de boogie woogie y blues, y encontrar la libertad para improvisar- para que tú también puedas convertirte en el Piano Man definitivo.
