Sandra Bernhard | Easy Listening We are thrilled to welcome Sandra Bernhard back to Oscar’s Palm Springs for her 5th engagement!
Ride along with Sandy as she takes you on a tour of her musical influences.
From the first time she heard the Supremes on AM radio on a snowy night in Flint, Michigan to her first concert, Simon and Garfunkel … these are the songs you love and remember. The strumming guitars, the singalongs … from Peter Paul & Mary to the Stones. Slaughter On 10th Ave playing on the Fisher Hi FI (absolutely no one can touch this do you hear me! screamed her father) as Ravel & Debussy drifted up from the basement where her mother just wanted to take a small break.
The sounds of home that we all remember … jazz from your brother’s bedroom, your sister shouting along to Janis, as she plotted her escape.
The cross country move to Arizona opened new musical vistas, as the ‘60s gave way to the ‘70s and the women of the era acted as our spiritual guides … Tina, Joni, Dusty, Aretha, Laura, Carole…
Climb into the Pontiac station wagon and get ready to hit the road.
