The SohoJohnny Presents Let Me Help Inc 9/11 Celebrity Benefit Concert held at the @Rumi Event Space in NYC on 9/11/21 was an incredible opportunity to see guitar virtuoso Rocky Kramer perform for a great cause. Often compared to the greatest guitar players in the world, Kramer initially took the stage to play the “Star Spangled Banner” with Six-Time Grammy Nominee Joey Belladonna (Anthrax), NO Mansfield from Revolushn, and DRMAGDN (Cyber Drummer of the Future) to a sold-out crowd. Following the mesmerizing performance, Kramer played guitar alongside Grammy Nominee Jon Butcher on “Some Kind of Wonderful,” and the audience was floored by the amazing skills he displayed.
Rocky Kramer killed it on both songs, but the real magic came when he took center stage to perform his hit single “Rock Star” off his first studio album “Firestorm.” “Rock Star” is a glam-rock/metal magical journey into the facets of the ultimate superstar, and that is exactly what Kramer is, a Superstar. Originally from Norway, Kramer’s music appeals to many as he mixes modern metal with old school rock, playing with such enthusiasm that the audience is immediately mesmerized. He is definitely a performer you do not want to miss….
Other artists performing included Kim Sledge from Sister Sledge, Leon from Leon and the Peoples, Felipe Rose from the Village People, Kreesha Turner, Michelle Shocked, Sari Schorr, ARO, Billy Hess, Tym Moss, master pianist and composer Randy Edelman, Kulick, No Mansfield, DJ Charlie Z, Shitty Princess, Mickey Burns, Manny Cabo, Queeny King and many others. Also present was actor Mario Van Pebbles, author Howard Bloom, Wonderama’s Chuck Armstrong, Producer Carol Green from Redwood Entertainment and John Velasco from everywhere including Chippendale’s. Even producer SohoJohnny was on stage performing a duet with Kim Sledge and singing the Grande Finale “Don’t Stop Believing.”
The world can expect Rocky Kramer to become a household name in the near future. He will be hitting the silver screen as Rocky Kramer was just cast in The Mutt Productions/ Allied Artists rock n’ roll time travel comedy adventure “Rockin’ In Time” where he will play the film’s lead character, Lars Olsen. The film is being directed by Aaron Lee Lopez (of the “Teenage Girl” franchise) and is being produced by multi-platinum and six-time Grammy Award winning musician, turn motion picture producer, Kurt Wipfli.
