ZUPPA Featuring Bevin Victoria

It’s the return of Zuppa.

Dave Fleschner – Keys

A.G. Donnaloia – Guitar

Anthony Jones – Drums

Featuring Bevin Victoria on vocals and percussion.

Here’s the story as Dave sees it:

“I was playing a lot of organ trio music in the early 2000’s.  A.G. came up to me at a gig and asked if I was interested in starting a trio with him and Anthony Jones.  What ensued was several years of some of the most creative, funky music I’ve been involved in.  We all went on to play with other groups – me with Curtis Salgado, A.G. with Liv Warfield, and Anthony with Pink Martini.  But now we’re back together, and with our new collective experiences, I’m excited to play music with these amazing people.  I met Bevin at a show a couple months ago, and thought her cross-cultural approach to music and art to be a perfect complement to this group”

Bevin Victoria has worked as a guest artist with Sepiatonic, Mike Van Liew and Underscore Orchestra and has been a featured vocalist on the Sepiatonic EP Step Up and Moh Alilech’s release Shame On You.  As a multi-talented artist – vocalist, dancer, actress, percussionist – she brings a special kind of energy to the stage.

In 2017 she made her return to musical theatre in the Fox & Beggar production of Angamazad: A Tale of Arabian Nights and appeared as a soloist and an ensemble performer in the Modern Prometheans production, Roles I’ll Never Play. In 2018 she appeared in I Hate Love Songs and It’s Good To Be Bad, both also produced by Modern Prometheans.

A.G. Donnaloia is a local performing, touring and recording musician, composer, and guitar teacher for over 20 yrs. He plays and teaches a wide range of music styles including Jazz, Latin American, Soul, R&B, Rock and Hip Hop. He’s played with Liv Warfield and Freddy Trujillo, among many others.

One of the founding members of N Touch, drummer Anthony Jones has toured the world and performed at Carnegie Hall. He studied architecture and music at Portland State with pianist Darrell Grant and performed with the flamenco group Al-Andalus. He joined Pink Martiniin 2011, and he recently returned to Portland to be home more with his wife Portia and their daughter.  And we’re so excited to have him back playing more locally.
