Come Hear The Great American Soul Book

The Suffolk presents The Great American Soul Book on Saturday, November 16, at 8 p.m., a concert that delivers a journey through the decades of Motown, R&B and other iconic soulful music that inspired generations. This is no oldies show. It is a high energy tribute that highlights the music that made us groove, made us move and filled dance floors and concert halls from the 1960s to 1990s and beyond.

The show is performed by the American Soul Band, featuring four lead choreographed male lead singers who will remind audiences of the Temptations with their smooth harmonies and moves, while covering many of the biggest hitmakers from the decades that followed. Deanna Carroll, who for years toured as Dianna Ross in Lady Supreme, is joined by incredible background singers, bringing the songs of the most iconic ladies of soul to life. The Great American Soul Book will wow audiences with the music of The Temptations, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Whitney Houston, Boyz II Men, The Four Tops, The Isley Brothers, Aretha Franklin, The Supremes, Luther Vandross, Sam and Dave, James Brown, Anita Baker, Babyface, Peobo Bryson and so many more.

This is feel good music, that will have audiences singing along and on their feet, dancing to hits that will appeal to many generations of music lovers. This is a band that will never forget its roots in Motown and classic R&B, but continues the audience’s journey forward, as they pay homage to the most recent decades of soulful hits made famous by the next generations of superstars.

Tickets are $55 to $65 at thesuffolk.org. The Suffolk is at 118 East Main Street in Riverhead.
