SOUTH SHORE OTIS: Anyone who’s heard Quincy-based keyboardist and singer Joe Bargar sing with his Soul Providers band, knows that he is the closest thing vocally to Otis Redding we’re ever likely to hear in these parts. Save your Michael Boltons with their hysterical histrionics, because Bargar with his penultimate grit and authentic soul, not to mention his ineffable cool, trumps the ersatz over-actors every time. The biggest thing to happen to Bargar and his band took one of them away for a spell. New Orleans native Amadee Castenell’s saxophone sound is so unique, he was signed to play the Elvis Costello/Allen Toussaint summer tour. By lucky coincidence, the Soul Providers play Harry’s Cajun Bar in Hyannis the same night the Costello tour swings through the Cape Cod Melody Tent. There will likely be some reunion time with Castenell at the tiny pub, and Bargar hopes the later set might include a jam session. The Soul Providers’ debut CD ‘‘Two Sides’’ came out almost two years ago, with a tasty mix of rhythm and blues covers. Available at shows, or through joebargar.com, or cdbaby.com, it has been a consistent seller and earned positive reviews. ...You’ll be wondering how Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett managed to be reincarnated into a Quincy piano player.
