Blues Cruise: Live Music

Patrick Jones has been a supporting musician with many well-known actors and recording artists, and has made T.V. appearances in England and Canada, Germany and the USA. He has been a touring and backing musician with the Isley Brothers, Terry Reid, Gene Clark, Imelda Staunton, Oh! Calcutta!, SPUNK - a play by Zora Neal Hurston, Whitney Houston, Buddy Miles; has performed music by Classical Composer Ned Rorem in NYC's Merkin Hall; and does Children's Music in Schools. Colin Pohl was born in London, England to musical parents. After moving to the United States at age 7, Colin learned the clarinet and won the Anthony Stephan Scholarship for best high school musician in Schenectady County in 1968. He picked up the saxophone in college and played in Jazz and Rhythm and Blues groups before attending the Berklee College of Music in Boston. He played for many years with the Magic Band of Sam Waymon (brother of the great Nina Simone) and the World Music Group Sangha Tierra in New York. Frank Mullen III has led U.S. Navy bands in performances throughout the United States, Asia, and Australia, has toured the East Coast as musical director for a variety of entertainers, and now lives quietly a few blocks from the Aledo Opera House. Having accompanied Bob Hope and Bing Crosby in concerts and radio broadcasts, Frank is happy to add Bill Stroud to his list of Great American Collaborators. Bill Stroud grew up in Aledo and attended Aledo High School. He is not a professional musician; the music teacher in the school he founded in New York City, the Baccalaureate School for Global Education, declared him “an earnest amateur”. With the Aledo Opera House event, he will be carried musically by Patrick, Colin, Frank, and the audience.PT1H30M2026-06-04
