Korel Tunador Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson

It was such a treat to sit down again with treasured friend, Korel Tunador. I’ve sure missed him. Crazy talented and oh, so fun,   quintuple threat––guitar, keyboards, sax, accordion, and vocals, Korel, who’s been playing with Rob Thomas the last many years, spent a dozen + with the Goo Goo Dolls, toured with Katy Perry, and Jada Pinkett Smith’s Wicked Wisdom, and prepped to tour with Hanson, filled us in on how he got each, how the experiences played out, from never making it on the road (the latter) to the Ted Lasso  almost religious experience he’s currently living with Rob Thomas and company. Now focused on vocal coaching - pros to unknowns, Korel took us on his journey from piano at 5 in Pittsburgh to stadiums and TV. 

Explaining how anyone can sing… on key, and learn to harmonize… it’s all about patience and perseverance. Even me? I may have to take him up on that. Korel’s primary instrument of choice is his voice. As if to punctuate the point, he treated us to his new, emotive, Drain on Me, the also new, You Belong to Me, not sad he said, yet it also brought a tear…  and Korel’s closer, his classic, The Town of Artichoke, which left me giddy, and flying high, as it always does. 

One of the sweetest humans on the planet, Korel’s played my living room thrice, and was part of the Women Who Write extravaganza produced by Mike Nesmith at the Henry Miller Library in Big Sur. I’ll be forever grateful to Zoe Moon for connecting us, and for Zooms like these that reconnect us even when he’s busy as hell, and miles away. 

If you’re a pro on the road looking to up your vocal game, or a layman like me, considering how lovely it would be to shock your loved ones and whip out an unexpected harmony or two, Korel can be reached @koreltunador.com - few funner to hang with for any reason.
