Wayne Powers started out as a nightclub singer in New York at age 16. He performed across the country, finally landing in Hollywood where he worked for Henry Mancini. Wayne launched his decades-long network television career after being discovered in a live improv comedy show with a then-unknown Robin Williams.
Williams went on to Mork & Mindy and movies, while Powers went on to Laverne & Shirley, Elvis and Me, One Day at a Time, Murder She Wrote, Simon & Simon, Full House, Alf, Doogie Howser, and many others, including starring for two seasons in his own popular NBC sitcom, 13 East.
Equally at home on television, radio, theatre, club or concert stage, music is his first love. Wayne has played top jazz rooms and jazz festivals, consistently drawing large, enthusiastic, star-studded crowds over the past fifty years.
Powers is also an accomplished recording artist. His latest album If Love Were All has been nationally and internationally broadcast on radio and on Sirius XM’s SiriuslySinatra satellite radio channel.
