When it comes
to Scintas, (Say Shin-tahs), the only thing
routine about this fantastic comedy / variety
musical foursome is the way they draw capacity
crowds wherever they appear. Scintas draw wildly
enthusiastic fans of all ages, from all walks
of life, and every fan leaves the show happy
and entertained. That's because Scintas offer
something to appeal to everyone's musical or
comedic tastes, all excellently done. These
four remarkably talented people are from Buffalo,
New York.
Joe is the eldest brother of Scintas clan.
He's been playing bass guitar in his own band
since he was a teenager. His warm rugged good
looks and casual attitude give the air of a
man who's done the circuit, and is now happy
to be up on stage with his family, playing
straight man to Frankie's jokes. His impressions
and original characters are side splitting.
He's no slouch with the sound effects and bass
guitar either. Close observation of Joe in
concert, however, reveals a sharp perceptive
eye that's always scanning the crowd, getting
feedback, keeping all the variables in sync.
There’s no denying that everybody on
stage respects big brother Joe's opinion.
Chrissi can remember singing "Red Roses
for a Blue Lady," accompanied by Frank
on the banjo when she was three years old.
At age ii she was billed by a Buffalo columnist,
overwhelmed by the power of her voice, as the "next
Ethel Merman". Since then, she's been
compared to Whitney Houston and Streisand,
among others. The power and perfection are
still there, supplemented by experience and
elegance. The fact that she has a face and
body that make other women grind their teeth
in envy doesn't hurt. Chrissi regularly catapults
audiences out of their seats with that voice,
whether she's singing "I Will Always Love
You," or selections from the aforementioned "Phantom. " Her
brothers regularly tease their baby sister
about her sweetness and humility, qualities
that shine through on or off stage....They
also fondly bill her as the star of the show.
...they could be right.
