Join us for a memorable evening featuring the signature sounds of the legendary Mr. RONNIE LEIGH… Mr. Smooth himself! Treat yourself to the jazz, R&B, and soul stylings of one of the finest vocalists in CNY.

 

“After 40 years in the music biz, working with everyone from Smokey to Aretha to Ray Charles, and after 30 years of watching this guy, all I can tell you is that he’s one of the finest song stylists working in jazz today. But it doesn’t stop there. He’s also one of the finest Soul and R & B stylists I’ve ever heard and an amazing entertainer. The guy’s the complete package. And it’s not even remotely hype to mention him in the same sentence with the great Lou Rawls and the amazing Donny Hathaway.

And over the course of those five decades, at thousands of gigs, concerts, and performances, Ronnie has never come up short. If this was baseball, this guy’s the musical equivalent of Hank Aaron…. a guy who hits it out of the park every night, and never fails to delight audiences wherever he performs. His multiple-octave vocal range, engaging stage presence, singular style, and love of the music always come across, and whether he’s interpreting Monk, Al Jarreau, or Duke, the man’s consistently sensational!”
