SUMMARY:Ole Red - Derek Trull and EasyStreet
DESCRIPTION:DEREK TRULL AND EASYSTREET\n\nDATE: MONDAY\, MARCH 18\, 2024\n\
 nSHOW TIME: 6:00 PM\n\nLOCATION: OLE RED ORLANDO\n\nBIO:\n\nDerek  grew 
 up in a small town in Western Tennessee. Located smack dab between Memphis
  and Nashville\, Derek was influenced by the Blues\, Soul and Rock coming 
 out of Memphis – and the traditional and contemporary country sounds fro
 m Nashville. Growing up in a musical family\, he played and sang in church
 \, and absorbed all the gospel and traditional music around him. His first
  solo in his father’s church was “Imagine If You Will” at the age of
  4.\n\nWhile Bass is his primary instrument\, Derek is an accomplished gui
 tarist and piano player\, as well as being an outstanding vocalist.  His
  vocal talents landed him in the top Daytona area spot in auditions for Th
 e Voice – and he participated in the national contest.\n\nAfter moving t
 o Daytona Beach\, Florida in 2015 with just the clothes on his back\, and 
 a bass guitar in his hand\, Derek has carved out a great reputation as a s
 inger and bass player\, playing in several Daytona and surrounding area ba
 nds of all styles.\n\nThis led him to form the band “EasyStreet” with 
 outstanding guitarist Gary Koz and drummer Reginald Upshur (The Rock) in 2
 016\, playing hundreds of engagements each year. After Gary (whom Derek re
 spected deeply as a wonderful musician and mentor) passed away suddenly in
  2019\, Derek teamed up with Guitarist John Long\, and has added Keyboardi
 st Chris Nordman to the band in 2020.\n\nDerek’s vision for EasyStreet c
 ontinues as “we play it all”\, and being a “band for everyone”\, p
 laying Merle Haggard to Prince.\n\nDerek shines on every vocal style with 
 authentic renditions of Classic Rock\, Southern Rock\, Blues\, Country\, S
 oul\, and Pop tunes. This coupled with heartfelt bass lines makes him a on
 e-of-a-kind musician.\n\nWhen asked about musical influences\, Derek repli
 es “Gospel has always been a big part of my life and sound\, but Elvis P
 resley\, Otis Redding\, Tab Benoit\, Stevie Ray Vaughan\, and Chris Staple
 ton have always moved my soul and inspired me”\n\nDerek has shared the s
 tage with Thomas Wynn And The Believers\, Larkin Poe\, Heidi Newfield (of 
 Trick Pony)\, and the Swon Brothers\, to name a few.\n\nAs for the future:
  “The Sky Is the Limit”. The band will be recording soon\, including D
 erek’s originals and band favorites\, as well as traveling in the Festiv
 al and Concert Circuit.
