VÉRONIC & Million Dollar Quartet Jam Session Brings Brings Crowd To Their Feet!



 VÉRONIC Voices star, Véronic DiCaire, joined the cast of  MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET onstage for a special guest performance at  Harrah’s Las Vegas. Performing the voice of June Carter for the first time ever, the vocal impressionist sang a duet of “Jackson” alongside MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET cast member, Benjamin D. Hale, who portrays Johnny Cash in the production.   

Immediately following the final number of MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET, the one-woman vocal phenomenon joined the cast onstage for the Carter-Cash duet. Bringing two hit Las Vegas productions together in a unique, one-night-only performance, audience members clapped and sang along to “Jackson,” coming to their feet at the end with tremendous applause. 

This was the first time a guest performer has been invited to sit in with the Las Vegas Company for an on-stage jam session. In Chicago and in New York, MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET has rocked out with performers such as Melissa Etheridge, Kathie Lee Gifford, Lesley Gore and Jerry Lee Lewis.
