The Los Banos Arts Council brought a little bit of supper-club ambience to the Ted Falasco Arts Center last weekend. </p><p>Lee Durley and Joe Indence can usually be found playing in the Monterey area at such venues as Embassy Suites and Highland's Inn. </p><p>Their musical talent cuts a wide swath from the 1920s through the 1960s, but their focus last weekend was on 20th century hits and music by Nat King Cole.</p><p>The concert was well attended.</p><p>With Indence on piano and Durley doing the vocals along with percussion on a pair of Conga drums, the pair presented a two-part concert.</p><p>"What we're hoping to present tonight are songs from the great American songbook," said Durley before the show. "Just songs that people are familiar with -- hopefully. The second half of the show will be a tribute to Nat Cole, featuring a lot of his signature songs -- the songs that he's known for and some information about some of the songs."</p><p>Indence and Durley have been performing since they were children.</p><p>Durley said his father was a minister and a musician.</p><p>"He played trumpet, guitar and piano," said Durley. "Plus, he was quite a vocalist -- and in my father's church, everybody sang. In my family, everybody sang. So, that's my beginning; it's right there in church and the family."</p><p>Indence got his start as a child as well.</p><p>"It just started with classical piano lessons. I was doing little concerts when I was five years old," he said.</p><p>The current act came together about a decade ago.</p><p>"I was talking with my agent, and I said, 'John, how can we work less and make more?' And he says, 'Why don't you put together a supper-club show?' " Indence said. "So, we did a supper-club show called the Nat Cole show. For 20 minutes, we did a kind of historical thing, including the songs by Nat Cole." </p><p>Later they created a band called Easy Street, but according to Indence, nobody wanted to hire a five-piece ensemble. So, they cut it back down to be able to do the show and the music as a duo.</p><p>Indence candidly described how they designed their show. </p><p>"We were focusing on who has the money to spend. Are they 20 years old or are they 60 years old? So, who is gonna pay X amount of money to do a party at Pebble Beach? Probably some older people. So what music are they gonna be relating to? Certainly not rap. So, what we're thinking is, 'Wouldn't it be nice to let these people go back to when they were 20 years old in the '50s or the '40s.' So it was part of that ... creating the ambience so they could reminisce."</p><p>Durley added, "That's basically what we do at the Highlands Inn -- our regular Saturday night job. We're also at the Embassy Suites every Friday. We do a cross section of songs, but most of the songs that we select are from that era. Now we do infuse a little bit of the rock and all the other genres but we focus on our repertoire, which is based on the songs from the '40s and '50s -- the great American songbook."</p><p>That popular music of the 20th century came alive in Los Banos on Saturday.</p><p>The first half of the concert included renditions of tunes such as "Sentimental Journey," "Misty" and "Fly Me to the Moon." After an intermission, where people mingled over coffee, hot chocolate and cookies provided by the Arts Council, the duo performed a number of Nat King Cole songs.</p><p>The second part of the show was called "L.O.V.E -- A Tribute to Nat King Cole." </p><p>Durley and Indence performed several Nat Cole favorites such as "Unforgettable," "Route 66," "Straighten Up and Fly Right" and, of course, the concert's tribute tune: "L-O-V-E."
