| Nathan Granner
“…Granner makes each of his numbers an event. He's blessed with a commanding personality and a rich, resonant voice… perhaps more impressive are his control and finesse, the emotional logic with which he paces his solos, the way his singing takes on fresh timbre suited to whatever character he's singing…” Alan Scherstuhl, The Pitch Weekly, March 10, 2009
On his own, Sony/BMG Masterworks recording artist, Nathan Granner has received critical acclaim from The Boston Globe, The London Times, The New York Times, Opera News, Washington Post, and USA Today from his appearances as solo artist as well as from his leading role portrayals with the National Symphony Orchestra, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, Irish Radio Orchestra, the Tulsa Philharmonic, Opera Theatre Saint Louis, Lyric Opera of Kansas City, Wolf Trap Opera, Opera Tampa, and Tulsa Opera.

Specializing in the music of the Big Band Era and swing, this husband and wife duo treats their audiences to music from the 's through the 's including Waltzes, Latin, Classic Rock 'n Roll, and Classic Country. Byron and Barb Westerman settled near Branson, Missouri when Byron landed a trumpet gig with Bobby Vinton and The Glenn Miller Orchestra. Their colorful musical careers have spanned the globe. Byron retired from his position as Postmaster of Salina, Kansas to play lead trumpet for the the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. Barb began her career performing with the USO before launching a successful career teaching middle, and high school band and jazz band across Kansas. While teaching, Barb also played with several regional Big Bands across Kansas. The B&B Duo signature sound is produced by a mixture of background tracks created on a Roland Fantom Digital piano combined with Byron playing live on trumpet, flugelhorn, and piano and Barb on alto and tenor saxophones. They add velvety smooth vocals to many of their arrangements and enjoy an easy rapport with their audiences. |
