I was on the AdHoc Committee that was responsible for building the Bandstand. I was the primary entertainment scheduler. I am a musician, a singer, keyboardist, starting at the age of 10 performing at school events and performed at piano bars from Florida, New Mexico, as far as Wisconsin.

Director: Mick Bramante
I am a native to New Hampshire and a Hampton Falls resident for 16 years. I am a proud father of two children who attend Lincoln Akerman School. I currently work with my brave and beautiful wife Angela at our family business, Drinkwater Flowers and Design.
Most of my life and history in the music industry was formed in my early years when I began working for my father’s business, Daddy’s Junky Music Store.
My 20+ years of dedication to this family business, provided me with access to my passion for music and an opportunity for a creative and fulfilling diverse musical career.
Over the past 30+ years, I have played guitar in several bands and have met and worked with hundreds of talented musicians. My heart will always be part of this amazing culture and I look forward to providing my perspective to the Friends of the HF Bandstand as we create an enriching musical experience for our community.
