Debi Eng & Friends
Debi's musical education started at home with her parents, Bud and Fran Smith. They too were musicians and frequently played at Pasco's Eagle Club. Debi herself started gigging with Frank Eng and Greg Metcalf in '78 and has been playing and singing ever since.
Eng received her formal education at Central Washington University and has been a music teacher at Central Washington University, Park Middle School, Southridge High School, Chiawana High School and soon will be joining the faculty at Kennewick High.
My favorite songs Debi sings are her originals. Some to listen for are 'Think about the Children', 'Mornin Sun', and 'Simple'. She also does excellent renditions of Beatles, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, Adele, and Peter Frampton tunes. If you catch a gig at Mezzo Thai in Richland you can find her husband, Frank Eng playing a Pizza Box with brushes.
While Debi possesses many talents, her greatest gift is her kind heart. She continues to touch the lives of her listeners, friends and family.
