Anybody remember this guy? I don’t recall any songs that received radio air play, but he toured a lot along the gulf coast in the 1980’s and early 1990’s. He was a popular MTV fixture for a while. I saw his band a couple times within the same week at a couple of small clubs in Beaumont, Texas years ago. Even though I didn’t know any of their songs, I remember them being a really fun show with feel good music.

Definitely know of him. Saw him at least 15 times from ‘80-‘84 in Austin, San Marcos, New Braunfels, Padre and Houston. One time at Fitzgerald’s he jumped from the second story balcony to Washington Ave and kept on playing.
He had minor MTV success with and got regional airplay with Party Weekend

Cummings works with ceramics in Wimberley and teaches piano, as she has for years, with students including Butch Hancock’s son and Alejandro Escovedo’s daughter. She made the switch from piano to organ on the fly to join the band thirtysomething years ago. “One of the things we did was fill the void of just playing happy music,” she said. For her, the reunion tour means playing the Nord, an organ that can reproduce the mosquito pitches of the Farfisa and Vox minus their sporadic unreliabilities.
She married band manager Joe Nick Patoski in 1980, eloping from a tour stop in Berlin to get hitched in Paris. They have two grown sons. Patoski made his bones with the Crowns and the True Believers before writing for Texas Monthly and others.

When Michael Jackson sang with Joe "King" Carrasco - from the blog of J"K"C's manager Joe Nick Patoski (he married Kris Cummings!)

I remember advertisements for him playing local festivals and stuff al the time in the early 90’s, but never got to see them play.
Looks like a good choice to check out now, after having binged almost everything else I know over the last 4 months.

He used to play around campus quite a bit when I was at LSU, and I saw him on several occasions.
