“Greatest Love of All” The Music of WHITNEY HOUSTON
Genius The Music of RAY CHARLES

Emilie Surtees
For a singer with such powerful pipes, it’s something of a shock to hear vocalist Emilie Surtees describe herself as primarily a “listener.” Then again, maybe it’s her extraordinary capacity to listen that gives her tribute to Whitney Houston ” Greatest Love of All” its almost surreal accuracy. For Surtees not only replicates hit songs, power note for power note, but communicates the soul of each singer who originally recorded them — something that requires not only incredible vocals but also a profound appreciation of music. Be moved and amazed by a tribute artist every bit as talented as the singer she honor in this dynamic concert at B.B.King Blues Club .

Wayne Holmes
Frank Sinatra called Ray Charles “the only true genius in show business.” Rolling Stone ranked him No. 10 on their list of the “100 Greatest Artists of All Time.” Beginning in the early ’50s, Charles helped create the genre of soul music while racking up a string of hits including “Hit the Road Jack,” “Bye Bye Love,” “I Got a Woman,” “Georgia on My Mind” and many more. Now, in Genius: The Music of Ray Charles, Wayne Holmes recreates the legend, right down to his dark glasses, trademark grin, body language and, of course, Charles’ infectious music. A 75-minute concert of rock, blues and gospel music that sounds like Charles himself is up on stage. Holmes fills the big shoes of Ray Charles, complete with dark glasses, an ocean-wide grin and a mastery of Charles’ signature body language. The program will feature sing-along favorites such as “Hit The Road, Jack,” “Bye Bye Love,” “I Got A Woman,” “Night Time Is The Right Time,” “Unchain My Heart,” “Georgia On My Mind,” “You Are My Sunshine” and many others.
