Art(s) on the Air with Cyril Durant
Join Tamara for an interview with singer-songwriter Cyril Durant, who has lived in Savannah since 2013, after receiving a BM and an MM in vocal performance from Georgia Southern University.
His early professional life was as an opera singer (!), including performing at Opera Fayetteville in Fayetteville, AR as Friedrich Bhaer in Little Women. Since then, he has performed in the Savannah Music Festival, headed up the funk/jazz band "Those Cats," performed solo around Savannah as a singer and guitar or keys player, and has also been teaching Modern Band (like "School of Rock") at Benedictine Military School for the past 10 years.
Cyril plays solo shows around Savannah - particularly at Alida, Toasted Barrel, and Bar Julien - each week. Follow his IG to catch him live, and check out his work on all streaming platforms! (And if you go to the St. Patrick's Day Parade, look for Cyril in the midst of about 360 Benedictine marching band students.)
Song clips played during this episode:
Opera performance as Professor Bhaer of Little Women
Those Cats cover of "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley
"Love is a Drug," his first solo recording
Solo cover of "Toxic" by Britney Spears
