Gregory Porter - SOLD OUT!
With his soulful music and silky smooth voice, American Gregory Porter has gained status as one of jazz's superstars in record time. Finally, the popular vocalist is ready for the Kongsberg Jazz Festival!
Gregory Porter debuted as a recording artist as recently as 2010, and was accepted into the stable of legendary Blue Note Records three years later. After five albums and two Grammy awards for best jazz vocal album, he has built up a record-breaking audience both in the US and in Europe. In Norway, he has, among other things, sold out the Opera in Oslo and the Stavanger concert hall. Why this enormous popularity? Gregory Porter conveys timeless music with soul, credibility and musical joy - and with great respect for jazz history.
Gregory Porter recently released his fifth album "Nat King Cole & Me". Here he deals with immortal classics signed by Nat King Cole such as "Smile" and "Nature Boy" - versions the audience will surely get to hear at the concert in Kongsberg Musikkteater!
