Jake Simpson in "The "Holiday" Standard"

Singer/songwriter Jake Simpson returns to MA4 with an all new holiday show. Long before his prize-winning Pop performances on Star Search, the now infamous R&B duets on The Oprah Winfrey Show, or sharing the stage with artists like Earth, Wind & Fire, Adam Lambert and Stevie Wonder, Simpson was best known across the midwest as an up-and-coming crooner; paying for college & cutting his teeth singing his favorite classic songs in cozy Jazz clubs across the heartland. Simpson revisits these beloved standards in an evening of fresh & soulful arrangements from the American Songbook, classic Jazz & R&B standards with a sprinkling of holiday fare perfect for the most wonderful time of the year! Expect to hear your favorites made famous by Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder & more. Not just any old standard, critics rave about Simpson's "blue-eyed soul" and his "Amen-inducing" renditions of holiday classics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4osLswQD2g #jakesimpson #TV #oprah #steviewonder #singer #songwriter #singersongwriter #pop #motown #sandiego #martinisabovefourth #martinis #ma4sd #ma4 #live #livemusic #fun
