CALVIN RICHARDSON IN CONCERT:
Beloved crooner Calvin Richardson has long been a neo-soul favorite with his silky-smooth voice, sensual productions, and passionate performances. Richardson is known by fans as the "Prince of Soul", and concertgoers will have no trouble seeing why -- at his live shows he delivers luscious tracks like "Keep On Pushin'" and "You're So Amazing" with an ease and precision that never fail to leave audiences in awe. Richardson made waves in 2014 with the steamy R&B single "We Gon' Love Tonite" -- the lead single from his sixth studio album I Am Calvin -- and he continues to elicit collective swoons on his must-see tours.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Monroe, North Carolina-born Calvin Richardson was a familiar presence on the gospel circuit before he joined the R&B group Undacova in the early '90s. After that project failed to gain traction Richardson went solo, and in 1999 he released his debut album Country Boy on Universal Records. The album sold more than 100,000 units, paving the way for the success of his 2003 sophomore album 2:35 PM. That album peaked at No. 8 on the R&B chart, spawning the hit single "Keep On Pushin'" and earning Richardson a Grammy nomination for the track "More Than a Woman". The Grammy love continued in 2009 when his album Facts of Life: The Soul of Bobby Womack -- a tribute to the late great singer -- was nominated for two awards. Following the 2010 release of his fifth album America's Most Wanted, Richardson took some time off to pursue other projects including a stint on the reality TV show Come Back Kings. Following four years of studio silence, he reemerged in 2014 with the single "We Gon' Love Tonite", a triumphant return that has ticket buyers eagerly awaiting his upcoming tour dates.
The show was absolutely amazing. Everyone did awesome. Cant wait till next year.
Everything was awesome all the singers sounded really awesome and Calvin Richardson did his thing up there
The show was great,Calvin Richardson could have done better,that was boring
I’ve been to several concerts over my lifetime and this one ranks in my top three easily. Calvin took total control of the audience. Loved his stage presence and interaction.
It was Awesome Calvin Richardson was off the chain showed fans Appreciation with Roses & Shirts l enjoyed all the performers
This was my first time seeing Calvin in concert and it was a night to remember
The concert and all performers were great. I do feel that the bands were too loud at times and drowned out some of the singers. Also, the seating in the 200 section was too crammed and the seats were too hard and uncomfortable.
The space where the event was held was uncomfortable and people was not organized. After pokey sung the gentleman on stage was like have a goodnight and you can go take pictures with singers so I never got to see Calvin
For the most part the music was great, some of the sounds or tones were off, but over all love the artist did their thing especially my favs Roi, King George and Tucka! My biggest complaint was the parking the charge and distance from venue. Also the venue was VERY UNPLEASANTLY HOT HOT! I never want to go there again if these conditions are the same.
Good dancer! He know how to react with the crowd! A lady’s man!
