Powerhouse soul artist Michaela Jayde celebrates the incomparable Donny Hathaway in her unmissable show, A SONG FOR YOU.
Backed by an incredible line up of some of the city’s finest musicians, Michaela will perform much of the rich catalogue that established Donny as one of soul’s most important figures. The evening will also honour some of the iconic duets originally recorded with the great Roberta Flack, where Michaela will be joined by some very special guests.
Grammy award-winning Chicago native Donny Hathaway is undoubtedly one of the most influential champions of soul music with his rich, unmistakable tone, masterful musicianship and powerfully emotive performances. Some of his most notable original releases include The Ghetto, Someday We’ll All Be Free, and This Christmas, and many of the renditions he covered and released also earned him a great deal of success throughout his career, including Jealous Guy, A Song For You and You’ve Got A Friend. Donny’s influence on Michaela’s vocal artistry is evident as she soars with her powerful, soulful voice and deeply connects with her audience with gripping live performances.
No stranger to Melbourne’s vibrant music scene, Michaela has made her mark in the city’s soul community with more than a decade spent performing and working as a sought-after vocalist in many contexts, often alongside the likes of Kylie Auldist, Thando, Ben Abraham, WILSN and many more.
A Song For You promises to be an unforgettable evening of music, with a killer line up including:
David Tweedie on guitar
James Bowers on piano
Jason Heerah on drums and vocals
Josh Manu on bass
*Plus very special guests to be announced soon!
