BIOGRAPHY
Ted Roberson
Age: 62
Instruments: Bass, lead and rhythm guitar,keyboards. Lead and background vocals.
I’m a Professional sequencer, drum machine And
Computer programmer.
I began playing in the middle fifties with local gospel groups.
In early 1964 I joined the band” Les Cooper and the house rockers” which at this time had a hit record called Wiggle Wobble. I toured with the band until I was drafted in the army
In 1966.After serving two years (one year in Vietnam.) I returned home. In mid-1968 I toured Europe and the Middle East with the band” DITTO AND THE LOVERS”. In 1971 I toured Europe again with the USO show.
In 1972 I formed the band called” The N.Y. Stock Exchange.”
Thru a booking agent in Montréal named Pierre Royal, we worked thru Canada from St.Catherins to Nova Scotia.
In 1976 I joined The Bill Doggett Combo.(famous for the song,
Honky Tonk.)We toured from the east coast to the west coast.
Lots of freelance gigs with the likes of, Don Covey, Ben E. King, Noble Watts, Etta James, Wilbert Harrison, Donny Albert, Eddy Holman and others.
SEQUENCING EXPERIENCE, 25+ YEARS
In 1980 I started sequencing, making backing tracks for musicians and vocalist who didn’t have a band.
At present I’m doing the same for myself. My repertoire
Consist of songs from the 50’s thru the early 70’s.
For the past five years I’ve been playing, bars, lounges, private parties, clam bakes and wine tasting. My style and choice of songs have been well received on these ventures.
Normally I’m a one-man act, on special occasions I will hire an extra, such is the case with the video I’m sending.
The followering is a basic song list. This list is continually
Updated. I travel with my own equipment.

Baby Boomer Music
Baby Boomer Music
This blog is written for all music lovers but dedicated to the BABY BOOMERS.(you know who you are.)
Baby boomer music does not center on one group or race of people nor does it center on one genre of music. It covers the whole music spectrum. Seems the whole world is centered on youth and their genre’s of music that’s fine cause the future depends on them, the same as it depended on us but should we be forgotten?I invite you to hear my music.I would love to hear and possibly buy some of yours.
This is a call out to all BABY BOOMERS (musicians and listeners) to band together bring our music back. Below is my Bio.
