Solo acoustic artist Josh Cramoy entertained a crowded group at Jazzman’s on St. Patrick’s Day night.

CAP Board sponsored the event with delicious mint chocolate chip ice cream and themed “mocktails” from P.A.R.T.Y.

With students wearing green, Cramoy’s high-energy performance quickly lifted spirits to get everyone in the St. Patrick’s Day mood.

Cramoy is known for his powerful gigs and performed a variety of upbeat songs and definitely was impressive.

What was so unique about Cramoy’s performance was his transition of small parts of hit songs one after another.

The musician’s talent was enjoyable and entertaining. His music spans a wide variety of styles from rock to folk to country, hard rock to pop rock to soft rock and acoustic to jazz rock that pleased everyone’s musical liking.

Some well-known hits that caught the audience’s attention were “Hypnotize” by Notorious B.I.G., “Folsom Prison Blues” by Johnny Cash, “Simple Man” by Leonard Skynyrd and “Hit Me Baby, One More Time…” by Britney Spears.

Getting the crowd going wasn’t hard for Cramoy as students had no problem singing along.

The crowd listened to Cramoy’s music while enjoying the themed ice cream.

Cramoy is the lead singer of a contemporary rock band called JCB.

His band opened for Eve 6, Enter the Haggis and for “Saturday Night Live” comedian Jim Breuer.

Cramoy has been singing since the age of 16 and opened his very first NACA gig for Gavin DeGraw.

The singer recently became the number one most-booked artist at the 2008 Mid-Atlantic Regional Conference.
