OLI SILK
Keyboard
UK-Keyboardist Oli Silk is one of the most dynamic and energetic keyboardists in the genre. His unique mix of jazzy instrumentals, funky vocal cuts and down right dirty ol’ school keytar and vocoder, give his live shows that real wow factor and have garnered him a loyal and dedicated fan-base. Oli began writing and recording music as part of jazz funk duo ‘Sugar and Silk’ in the late 1990’s. Meanwhile, Oli has 5 CD’s to his name, including many chart topping radio singles. His credentials as a musical director are also far reaching, most notably for 4 years at the Dubai International Jazz Festival – overseeing some 30+ artists on the Jazz Garden Stage. When off stage, Oli is a sought-after smooth jazz producer, composer and mix engineer whose recent clients include keyboardists Nicholas Cole and Tim Watson, and saxophonist Michael J Thomas. Oli has also composed music for TV (Oprah Winfrey, MTV, Miami Ink).
