Leslie Odom, Jr. can sing anything! He did jazz and big band standards, funk, gospel, rock, soul, and of course, Hamilton. His band is fantastic too. He reminds me of Sam Cooke only better.
I thoroughly enjoyed my evening with Leslie Odom Jr....the sound system was good...my seat was good and Leslie sang all my favorite songs...10 stars!!!
What a great concert. Smooth voice, killer musicians, emotional performance, worth every cent!
The theater, Leslie Odom and his ensemble was absolutely beautiful. I enjoyed everything about an evening with Leslie Odom Jr.
“An Evening with Leslie Odom Jr” in Chicago was fabulous! He is such a gifted singer and performer. His band was amazing!! From the standards to the contemporary songs. From “Ave Maria” to “Dear Theodosia”, I was spellbound. One of the best evenings I’ve enjoyed.
From Fly me to the Moon to Ave Maria, with sprinkling of Hamilton and soulful new music, Leslie Odum Jr truly took us to church in the best way possible! His artistry was perfectly matched by his incredibly talented band. One of the best concerts I have seen in quite some time.
I made the mistake of giving my girlfriend the greatest first date of all time with this event. I don’t think I’ll be able to top this. It was a magical night, and a perfect official first date.
The show was probably the most flawless concert I’ve ever experienced! Leslie Odom Jr was engaging with the audience, brilliant with his vocal skills and his song choices were simply amazing. I was hoping that he would perform my favorite song of his “Without You”. But his last encore choice didn’t disappoint at all. Again a show of perfection!
Leslie is the best crooner ever. Beyond his smooth voice, his musical arrangements, his selection of song and the highly skilled musician playing and coordinating his sound make, for me, one of the best entertainers I’ve ever seen!
Took my wife to see Leslie Odom Jr. because she is a big fan. Leslie and his band are some of the most talented musicians we have ever seen. He played his hits (including 3 from Hamilton and some songs off his Christmas album). I would recommend seeing this show if you have a chance.
