Five Ninez: July 11, 2008 at Tobacco Road

On a summer Friday at Tobacco Road, we heard the Five Ninez (formerly Five Nines) blasting classic rock from the patio stage. Above are Matt Sebbag on bass and vocals, Kevin Orsillo on drums, Harley Basadre on lead guitar and lead vocals, and Scott “Crazy Fingers” Sanchez on keyboards.

Harley Basadre on guitar. His mom explains that, at 14, “Harley is a classical pianist, classical and jazz guitarist, plays drums (self taught), plays bass (self taught) and plays flute. He started playing classical piano at the age of 5. He’s been playing the guitar since the age of 7. He won a full scholarship to University of Miami’s young musician camp auditioning with Franz Litz’ Hungarian Rhapsody on piano. He has perfect pitch.” Harley also plays with the jazz ensemble at New World School of the Arts.
