Dave Fleschner: That funky keyboardist you've always heard / Coffeeshop Conversations @ Artichoke Music #285

By TOM D'ANTONI // Keyboardist Dave Fleschner talks about his years playing Soul, Funk and Blues including six years with Curtis Salgado.

We’ll be returning to the Café at Artichoke Music on Thursday April 8 for an interesting OMN Coffeeshop Conversation with therapist Dino Paris on how the pandemic has effected creativity.

But today we’re Skyping with keyboardist Dave Fleschner who has been a big part of many Portland bands. Many people remember him from being on the road with Curtis Salgado for six years.

He’s doing a lot of teaching these days as most musicians have been doing during the pandemic. One of these days I’ll be able to do one of these things and never have the pandemic come up in conversation…coffeeshop or not.

Dave has been a fixture in the Soul/Blues/Funk/Jazz scene around here and it’s a good time to say hello.
