Neil Wright
Piano / Saxophone
After four years of Electrical Engineering studies at RPI, Neil Wright decided that music was where his heart truly was and left engineering to go on the road with a score of different rock and show bands for the next twenty years. His career took him through 46 US states, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean Islands as a featured performer in opening acts for such musical icons as Michael McDonald, Kenny Loggins, Ray Charles, The Police, Bill Cosby, Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr., The Pointer Sisters, Starship, The Four Aces and Kenny Chesney.
Since 1998, he has performed with his own group for Casinos in Atlantic City, Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe & Reno, notable venues like the National Constitution Center, The Franklin Institute, Rockefeller Center and the Lincoln Center and private events for such notables as Donald Trump, the last three Governors of Pennsylvania, and former president George W. Bush.
Neil sings and performs on Keyboards, alto tenor and soprano saxophones and Native American flute.
