HOT SHOWS 2016
SEPTEMBER

Sept. 17: Aaron Neville Duo at Prairie Center for the Arts, Schaumburg With a career that’s spanned over five decades with four Platinum records, earning along the way four Grammy Awards in a variety of categories, Aaron Neville’s vast repertoire can be seen as a microcosm of American music over the past 100 years. Appearing without his famous brothers, accompanied only on keyboards by the remarkable Michael Goods, Neville’s solo show becomes an intimate and spontaneous story of his life and the music that guided it.
