Robert Cray, Kenny Wayne Shepherd Coming to Park Theatre

Robert Cray and Kenny Wayne Shepherd are coming to the Park Theatre in September, boosting the venue's already impressive 2012-2013 lineup.

The theater announced the addition of the two artists today. They're coming Sept. 28 at 7:30 p.m.

“One of the most exciting things about our ability to book the Robert Cray Band and Kenny Wayne Shepherd show is the fact that Rhode Island music-lovers will be able to enjoy a spectacular concert in a very intimate setting,” said Piyush Patel, Owner of the Park Theatre. “I’m extremely proud of the direction that our venue is heading by securing world-class performances and encourage everyone to join us for a show and see for themselves.”

Cray is a music legend, considered one of the greatest guitarists of our time, accumulating five Grammy Awards alongside tours with B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton and more. He's a member of the Blues Hall of Fame and "has been taking audiences on an epic musical journey - breaking through the pop ceiling with his blues-edged trademark sound, distinct playing style and daring innovations," according to a release.

Shepherd is a Louisiana native and has sold millions of albums. The musician is in his early 30s and has already earned five Grammy nominations and won two Billboard Music Awards.
