Blues band with all the whistles!! The name EDDIE DAYE has been known in the Washington DC area and beyond since before his days with the FOUR BARS singing group of the fifties. Having performed in places like THE BABY GRAND in NYC, CLUB HARLEM in Atlantic City, and THE CASINO ROYAL in Washington DC, Eddie is no newcomer. The several sides the FOUR BARS cut for the Josie/Jubilee label in NYC also go back a few years and are collector items sought after internationally. Eddie and his lovely wife Denise are now working under the name EDDIE & DENISE and the GOOD TIME BAND. Their new maxi/single is "SEXY SENIOR CITIZEN" and the act is currently appearing throughout the Washington DC area. For the past several years at least, Eddie has seldom finished a gig without calls for his original blues "SEXY SENIOR CITIZEN". It has become their signature song and they continue to bring the house down when and wherever they perform it. In January of 1998, after many years of standing ovations and requests for copies, a CD single was recorded. A second original blues, "Soothe Me Baby" by Jim Chitty (another Washington area songwriter), was also included. While Denise plays only a supporting role on only the title track she is a gifted singer and dancer in her own right. This can be witnessed by anyone who catches their live show. Performing a wide variety of blues, R&B, jazz, pop, and standard material, the act is not just blues all night but has something for everyone. Presently they are developing material for a full length CD which will also spotlight Denise as well as the multi-talented GOOD TIME BAND. At 77 Eddie is the consummate 'sexy senior citizen' and, as one might expect, has a wealth of experience in the music business. On his own DAYCO label he has released many recordings over the years including some gospel, and did early studio work with Donny Hathaway. As owner of the famous SHOWBOAT LOUNGE in DC during the late sixties and early seventies, Eddie covered every aspect of show biz from performing himself to booking other acts while at the same time managing and operating the club. So far "SEXY SENIOR CITIZEN" has shown promising signs even as only a self-produced CD single without the support of a record label. DC blues stations have given it some airplay and area retail outlets are beginning to show interest. Now, thanks to CD Baby and the internet, the CD is available worldwide. Slowly but surely things are moving in the right direction for EDDIE & DENISE and the GOOD TIME BAND, a few folks whose dues are paid up.
