Having been a successful member of the state of Connecticut business community for over 5 decades, Nutmeg Chrome firmly believes that support should be a 2-way street.

To this end, Bill Logozzo has been busy over the years contributing his time and energy to a variety of charitable causes in his home state of Connecticut. In recognition of these efforts, Bill was awarded the prestigious State of Connecticut Official Citation, in April of 2002, by the Connecticut House of Representatives.

Official Statement: The State of Connecticut Official Citation is given to Bill Logozzo in recognition of service to Community & State as a volunteer, successful merchant and musician: teaching children at elementary schools to play drums, playing at church functions & nursing homes, giving time as a little league coach, and aiding the Joseph Ouida Foundation by helping needy children.

The Heartbeat Jazz Band

The inspiration behind Bill Logozzo's "Musical Dreams for Human Harmony", is his band, Heartbeat. After September 11th, Bill and the band sought ways in which they could help bring solace and aid to those affected by the tragic events of this day. Heartbeat's first major charity performance was held in April, 2002, which contributed to a foundation named for a close family friend, Todd Ouida, who was lost in The World Trade Center disaster. It was during this concert that they realized they had discovered a special purpose for their music.

Heartbeat Jazz has played at many prominent locations, including:

  • Durham Fair
  • Riverfront Recapture
  • The Old State House
  • Yale University
  • The Pump House Grille
  • West Hartford Cruise Night
  • Park Road Parade and Christmas Stroll
  • Madison 4th of July Parade
  • Martin Kellogg Middle School, Newington, CT
