George Benson has the rare distinction of being in the pop consciousness while remaining in the pantheon of jazz greats. The iconic guitarist/vocalist/songwriter fearlessly follows his muse—the melody—across genres, eras, and perceived expectations with elegance and imagination. Benson embodies jazz’s improvisatory spirit, restlessly shapeshifting and searching while retaining his own elegant essence: his honeyed vocals, guitar lines that veer from lyrical to dazzling, and his penchant for slick grooves from blazing be-bop to sultry neo-soul.
August 11th at 8PM at the Rivers Casino Philadelphia Event Center. A full bar will be available. Free parking on-site.
