TWO LEGENDS ON STAGE

Chris Bennett and Band
Grammy Nominated singer/pianist/songwriter with 12 CDs to her credit. Her music has been recorded by Tina Turner, Keb Mo, The Manhattan Transfer, and many more. As a background singer she has sung with Donna Summer, Dean Martin, Jim Nabors, Johnny Mathis, Bill Champlin of Chicago, and Rita Coolidge.

A Grammy nominee for Best Original Score for *Midnight Express*, she is also the vocalist for *Munich Machine*. Her extensive discography includes numerous albums—including collaborations with the legendary Bill Marx—and a new album is currently in the works.

Her distinctive approach to American jazz—characterized not merely by playing the music, but by *becoming* the music—is taught in conservatories and music schools.

On stage, Chris Bennett is accompanied by the legendary entertainer Rick Ross (guest star).

Chris Bennett’s voice and arrangements are truly unique; they often get under your skin, touching both heart and soul. Her warm groovy music and mellow love songs, in particular, are deeply moving—often bringing listeners to tears—and embody pure love.

Sir Waldo Weathers with Henry Carpaneto Trio

Are you ready to welcome the "Pope of Funk”? He’s coming to get you!!
is an iconic artist, entertainer, and musician, renowned for being a member of the James Brown Band for over 15 years. His incredible musical journey also includes collaborations with legendary artists such as The Nite-Liters (1968-70), Charley Pride (1979-1989), Johnny Taylor (1985-1987), Delbert McClinton, Willie Nelson, Phil Collins (2010-2011). His latest endeavor involves a remarkable collaboration with the acclaimed Italian pianist Henry Carpaneto (Voodoo Boogie - Pianissimo - Orangehomerecords). Their meeting in Bamberg, Germany, where Henry was touring with Tony Coleman, the last drummer for B.

B. King, sparked a unique musical synergy. Henry Carpaneto, nominated best European Blues Piano Player 2005 by Blues Feelings France, is celebrated as one of Europe's finest Blues musicians, with Otis Grand stating, "Henry is without a doubt one of the best Blues musicians in Europe," and Jerry Portnoy of the Muddy Waters band affectionately calling him, "He's my piano man." Together, Sir Waldo Weathers and Henry Carpaneto, along with Luigi Arieta on drums and Livio Marconi on guitar, create a sublime musical experience, seamlessly blending the vibrant energy of Funk with the soulful depth of Blues.
