Take part in an evening of uplifting and memorable music from an iconic period of musical history fronted by the smooth, velvet vocals of world-class crooner Terrell Edwards. “A Night of Motown” delivers a high-energy trip through the Hitsville, USA catalogue of legendary artists like The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Earth, Wind & Fire and many more. Edwards blends the slick choreography, enduring nostalgia, and sophisticated showmanship of classic Motown with a fresh, contemporary energy. Backed by a large band, dancers and back up singers bringing a foot-stomping, sing-along celebration of the rhythm and blues that shaped a generation.
Terrell Edwards’ velvet vocals have been described as the “perfect blend of Sinatra and Motown,” able to bring legendary artists back to life with his soulful, seductive voice and clever new renditions of classic American standards. Studying with four-time Grammy nominee Eric Benet, Edwards learned jazz saxophone, drums, and piano, all while developing his soulful, smooth voice that has become instantly recognizable to fans everywhere. After a stint with the US Navy, Edwards relocated to Atlanta, where he gained a reputation as a multi-genre songwriter, penning tunes and producing hits for Pop, R&B, and Gospel artists throughout the southeastern United States. Along the way Edwards earned a string of Billboard hits and award nominations, as well as a touring schedule that has brought his talents to audiences across the continent.
Take this opportunity to join the audiences as “A Night of Motown,” featuring Terrell Edwards plays one night only, October 24 at The Anvil Theatre, 777 Columbia Street, New Westminster.
