Buzz Bessette was born in El Paso, Texas. His father, an organist and trombone player in the Continental Army Band, and his mother, an organist and drummer, imbued him with the love of music early on.
Buzz began his professional music career after high school when he performed with such acts as George and the Diminished 5th, Dawn of Atlantis show band and the 50's rockers, The Stingrays. Diversifying his style, he performed with the East Coast Express Jazz Band in the legendary Orion's Roof Club in Virginia Beach. Later he began studying classical piano with Ila Bovee.
He was held in captivity as a "lounge lizard" for over 16 years. Call Guinness! He performed over 4500 shows at one venue! Buzz began performing for the Showcase in the 2004 summer show, "wowing" us with his phenomenal keyboard and vocal skills.

I am a fan...from waaay back before the OBX ever heard of Buzz.. Still am! You guys got yourself a real gem there... Ever see talent ooze outta guy's ears??? Then you haven't seen Buzz!!!
I have never seen such a talented musician. Trans Siberian Orch. could take lessons from this guy. What took them 2 keyboard players, he did by himself. He can rock out with the best of the best! Multi talented from Guitar to Keyboards and even drums...
Buzz is a 'extremly' talented musician..."I knew the buzz" when he use to 'rock & roll' at the ranch. I've heard him play many times...as a musician myself I can say the boy is multi-talented, on the keyboard, guitar, and harmonica.
Great guy!!
