Bay Area vocalists Tony Lindsay, Nona Brown, and Bryan S. Dyer lead an evening of electric blues, classic soul, and old-school R&B. An all-star band featuring Frank Martin, Kevin Goldberg, Terrence Brewer, Lorca Hart, and George Brooks supplies the deep grooves and high-energy musicianship behind the singers.

The program draws on music associated with figures including Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, and John Lee Hooker. Soulful vocals, blues feeling, and familiar rhythmic foundations come together in a concert designed to celebrate music that has moved generations.
