Concert Announcement / News Soul singer Rhonda Thomas plays The House of Jazz Feb. 20
Posted By Carlton Hargro on Thu, Feb 17, 2011 at 10:56 AM
OK, this one goes out to all you folks who complain that Charlotte never gets visits from cool soul artists: Have your ass in the House of Jazz this Sunday, Feb. 20 to see vocalist Rhonda Thomas perform.
Thomas is coming straight outta Atlanta, and is definitely a product of that robust soul music scene — the same scene that birthed folks like India.Arie, Anthony David, Cee Lo and many more. She honed her skills by singing background for Isaac Hayes for 11 years, and she's shared the stage with greats like India, Dwele, Goapele, Incognito, and Eric Roberson, among many other artists.
She'll be in town belting out a diverse array of tunes — including music from her latest album Listen, which hit the streets just four months ago.
All that said, bring your ass to the show. Here's the info: $10. Doors open at 7 p.m. The House of Jazz, 8630 University 8630 University Exec Park Drive, 704-594-9722. www.thehouseofjazz.net.
And for a look at Thomas in action, check out these videos:
