Dapo had the honor and privilege of performing on stage with David Foster and the incredible, Italian tenor, Andrea Bocelli, at the Kodak Theater (Hollywood, CA) last night. The performance was for the David Foster/Andrea Bocelli PBS Special, “My Christmas” which was taped in front of a (packed) live audience and will air on PBS on December 1, 2009. (Dapo is pictured below backstage with his manager, Tom Maffei.)

Dapo jams out at the Big Fish Audio booth at NAMM on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2009! For those who haven’t seen him perform live, this one’s for you!
When Legendary Bassist, Bill “The Buddah” Dickens stops by the Big Fish Audio booth the next day (Sunday, Jan. 18, 2009), it’s a no-brainer that Dapo and Bill will dive head first into a jam session. Only one problem, remember to bring extra batteries next time! The camera died at the end.

John Legend is on tour right now promoting his current album, EVOLVER. Dapo wrote and produced “Quickly” (along with Lonny Breaux and Midi Mafia) which also features Brandy. Check out these live performances.
This video was shot in Las Vegas (uploaded 1/11/09) and is shorter than the second video but is from a closer angle:
This video was shot at John’s NYC show (2/13/09) and features a female singer who sounds a lot like Brandy.
