TRIO "SQUEAKY CLEAN" PERFORMS
WELL-LOVED SONGS OF
THE 1950s 1960s AND 1970s FOR ALL AGES
"Their fresh take on rock and roll
was the perfect summer evening entertainment for children and families and
grandparents" The Ridgewood (NJ) News
"The band was terrific, had everyone
toe-tapping and maintained a running commentary between songs...everyone has
such fun." Manhasset (LI) Press
"[Their] carefully selected
family-friendly songs from the 1950s 1960s and 1970s offer messages of harmony,
reassurance, inspiration and fun." Queens Times-Ledger
The New York-based rock and roll trio "Squeaky Clean" has presented the best
songs of rock and roll's early years since 1983, Renowned for their authentic
look and performing style, the band always gives a knockout performance
guaranteed to entertain all ages, from infants to senior citizens.
Their show includes such favorites as "Rock Around The Clock" "Build Me Up
Buttercup" and "Stop! In The Name of Love." Their renditions capture
all the excitment and energy you remember from the first time you heard these
songs on your transistor radio. Many songs on the program are featured on their
award-winning CD "Pull Together."
Suzanne C. Smithline slaps the bass fiddle, Glenn Paul Manion twangs his
Gretsch guitar and Phil Leone keeps the beat swinging. Suzanne and Glenn's
13-year old daughter Addison joins them for many performances on alto and
baritone saxophone.
The audience is always included in the proceedings. Suzanne gives
instructions on how to perform the "hand jive." The Beach Boys' "Surfin' USA"
includes make-believe surfing and swimming in the concert hall (look out for the
shark!). The audience provides sound effects for the Chordettes' hit
"Lollypop" and everyone cleans up at the end of the show while Glenn
performs Bobby Darin's "Splish Splash."
SQUEAKY CLEAN presents over 200 performances each year. They have rocked The
International Children's Festival at Wolf Trap, Central Park and Grand Central
Station in New York City, First Night Celebrations in NYC, Connecticut and New
Jersey and shared the stage on July 4th with Gary U.S. Bonds and Don McLean.
Their performance of Sly and the Family Stone's "Everyday People" was
featured on the soundtrack of the film "Prejudice: More than Black and White"
for FFH Films.
SQUEAKY CLEAN was a regular guest on Nickelodeon's "Eureeka's Castle" and
their appearances are fondly remembered by young adults many who watched them on
TV as children. A typical comment left on their YouTube page (over 42,000
views): "I would sit with my grandmother in the living room, and she would
watch me, and this was one of our HUGE favorites...[you] had such a great stage
presence and charisma with children, well, you guys are just about heroes to
me."
