ToBeOne

Brian Poirier and Richard Michos have been writing and producing together for over two decades. Brian creates lyrics and melodic inspirations then works in collaboration with Michos to produce this unique blend. The result is a contemporary rock trio featuring a fusion of styles and Michos’s jaw dropping guitar solos. CeCe Cannavo contributes her unique writing style and blues driven melodies and harmonies. She adds a new twist in the world of multi-instrumentalists as a DJ, Guitarist, and Keyboardist. They have attitude and have been called irreverent, though their lyrics are quite poetic and speak to current themes in the world and in all of our hearts & minds.

Poirier is the quintessential front man. He has produced million dollar revues, live events and has performed in showrooms, clubs and theatres since 1977. He was the lead singer for Iguana Twist which became well known for their MTV video “Are You Following Procedure”. Poirier co-produced the Rockin’ Blues Revue which became on of the most successful showroom productions in the history of northern Nevada. He has toured the world and throughout his diverse career he has performed with Ted Neely and Carl Anderson in Jesus Christ Superstar, and on the same bill with many rock legends, from The Beach Boys, to Otis Day and the Knights, and many more.
