Shrine World Music June '23

Shrine World Music is very musician friendly. We began the summer with a fantastic gig, and returned in October.

Arturo's Jazz Night

Every night is filled with music at Arturo's, but, this particular night I was invited to sing some jazz with these great musicians. I will be back!

Moondance at Arturo's

MG & the Orbs Halloween Spooktacular

WITH SPECIALLY SELECTED HALLOWEEN SONGS RANGING FROM THE 1920S TO PRESENT DAY, PLUS OUR ORIGINALS, WE ROCKED SHRINE WORLD MUSIC TO THE MAX. OUR AUDIENCE HAD A BLAST. HOW DO WE KNOW? BECAUSE WHEN THE SHOW WAS OVER, THEY GATHERED AROUND THE STAGE SHARING COMPLIMENTS AND WANTING MORE. WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL

It's always an exhilarating experience when Jordan Siwek plays with MG & the Orbs. He is the original Orb who began the journey with me in 2011. Not to be ignored at all are Aaron Keane on bass, and Dan Walsh on drums.

MOONDANCE

Moondance is an all time favorite of MG & the Orbs, so we decided to open up the show with it to spark up the audience.

MG with Robespierre

Yes, that's my raven Robespierre. He always accompanies me on a Halloween gig.

Shrine World Music - June '23

Breaking in Summer at Shrine NYC

MG with Arno Hecht - Rehearsal time at Rivington Music Rehearsal

All I can say is having a member of The Uptown Horns in my band is more than an honor.

Gene Torres on Bass

Gene Torres is a blessing to any band. He's been with me since day one, and is an asset above and beyond playing bass.

Artie White Lead Guitar

Not only is he mean on the guitar, but he is definitely the happiest guitarist in the world. An absolute treasure to have in my band.

Dan Walsh on Drums

Dan Walsh was called in at the last minute to fill in for my former drummer. (Don't ask) He was completely prepared and knocked it out of the park.

Hello, it's me!

Closing out the night

We always wish that our fans get home safely. So please do travel the my way, on the highway that's the best. Route 66

Metropolitan Zoom Virtual Cabaret

Not rain, nor snow, or a pandemic can stop MG & the Orbs from entertaining. Thanks to Bernie Furshpan, who created MetropolitanZoom, we were able to perform for our fans virtually with great success. It was a much needed entertainment experience for everyone.
