Ray Charles - world renowned vocalist and pianist, saxophonist, songwriter, arranger and often referred to as 'The Genius Of Soul'.
Ray had a remarkable career from his first West Coast blues and jazz records to his gospel-tinged pop hits like I Got A Woman, Hallelujah I Love Her So and What'd I Say in the 50s. Ray made a cameo appearance in the 1980 film The Blues Brothers some of which will be included in this show.
Australian vocalist and pianist Ezra Lee will perform Ray's greatest hits with his seven-piece band. Ezra has performed in Las Vegas supporting rock 'n' roll pioneer Jerry Lee Lewis as well as toured Australia with the Queen of Rockabilly Wanda Jackson and has eight albums released internationally.
