Bill Fulton on keys or piano with Touch n Go Band
Bill Fulton piano Concord July 17 1986 documents another live appearance with the Touch N Go Band at the Concord Sheraton Hotel in Concord, California. Fulton performed on keyboards and piano on July 17, 1986. The date continued a series of performances by the band at the hotel that week.
By the fourth documented night of the Concord engagement, the musicians had already spent several evenings performing together in the same setting. That continuity can strengthen communication within an ensemble. However, professional players still need to approach each performance with attention and energy. Live music depends on interaction, and even familiar material can develop differently from one evening to the next.
The keyboard chair is especially responsive to those changes. Fulton could provide harmonic support, rhythmic accompaniment, fills, transitions, and other elements needed by the band. Furthermore, piano and keyboards can change texture quickly, allowing the player to support different singers, instrumentalists, and musical styles throughout an engagement.
Another night with Touch N Go
The venue listed in Fulton’s archive as the Concord Sheraton Hotel later became the Concord Plaza Hotel. It remains at 45 John Glenn Drive in Concord. The hotel’s current website provides information about the property and its event facilities. Visit the Concord Plaza Hotel website for more information.
The July 17 performance represents one more piece of Fulton’s history as a professional pianist and keyboardist. Long careers are built not only from high-profile projects but also from the steady sequence of rehearsals, performances, recordings, and engagements that develop a musician’s experience. Therefore, preserving these dates provides useful historical context alongside larger credits.
