Becky Boyd is one of the treasures of the local music scene we shouldn’t take for granted just because she’s been performing for more than four decades, boasting one of the biggest voices in the local music scene. She can belt a blues-based tune, inject a rock tune with heartrending emotion or turn a pop song into a display of jazz-style fireworks. She’s been playing with her latest band, Groove Train, for nine years. It includes some of the scene’s other seasoned veterans — bassist Alfredo Guerrieri, drummer Jim Wall and keyboardist Chris Hanna — who are skilled in surrounding her with musical support that shows off her voice to best advantage.
You can catch Becky Boyd and Groove Train this week at the BOP STOP. Much of the music may be familiar (she does include some original tunes as well), but you’ve probably not heard them sung this well recently.
