Australian
powerhouse entertainer Greg Bonham returns to The Smith Center with "G'day
Las Vegas" in the intimate Cabaret Jazz Room on Saturday, Aug. 22 at 8
p.m. Bonham's soulful voice and blazing trumpet-playing make the highly
anticipated return with a one-night only concert performance that music lovers
will not want to miss.
Backed
by an all-star eight-piece band, Bonham will perform today's hits from Michael
Buble, John Legend and Pharrell, as well as classics from Maynard Ferguson,
Blood Sweat & Tears and Chicago. Also featured are his moving originals and
his show stopping versions of "Hallelujah" and "MacArthur
Park."
Bonham,
who has performed from Las Vegas to London, grew up on a sheep farm in the
Australian outback and had always dreamed of becoming an entertainer. His dream
became a reality when he won a national TV talent competition at just 16 years
old and has since gained the adoration from fans and critics alike. The
successes continued, starring in his own TV special in the U.K. and selling
more than 14 million records in Eastern Europe.
The
international headliner headed to the U.S. with his wife and daughter, opening
for top entertainers including Jay Leno, Don Rickles and Joan Rivers. Bonham is
proudly "Up from Down Under" and shares equal time between his homes
in Huntington Beach, Southern California and Las Vegas.
"I
just can't leave the excitement of Las Vegas... I am hooked and will always
return to this great city," says Bonham. "I love performing at the
Cabaret Jazz at the Smith Center, it is simply the best venue in town. The
intimacy allows you to connect with the audience and create an experience other
venues just can't duplicate."
Quoted
by Sydney's Daily Mirror entertainment critic as "one of the most powerful
entertainers," Bonham's high-energy and Australian charm will continue to
captivate audiences everywhere.
