Echoes of Etta – A Tribute to Etta James

Time Out New York Critic’s Pick three years running, ECHOES of ETTA is the Award-winning Etta James tribute starring New York soul-singer William Blake (2014 Bistro and NY Nightlife Award winner for Outstanding Vocalist) with Michael Thomas Murray (Music Director: Forever Dusty, 50 Shades! The Musical). Blake’s soulful three-octave range channels Miss James, with Murray, an all-star band, and a trio of sublime back-up singers delivering a no-holds-barred, powerhouse revue that BroadwayWorld calls β€œOne of the best tribute shows of this or any year.”
