Event
Frankie J at Willits Community Theatre
Frankie J will be performing at the Willits Community Theatre on Sunday June 14, at 7 P.M.
A resident of Willits for the past 15 years, Frankie is known as a piano man with a ton of soul. He plays rhythm and blues, blues, jazz, soul, gospel, rock 'n' roll, and even classical. He's been influenced by such greats as Ray Charles, Little Richard, Nat King Cole, Otis Redding, Earth, Wind and Fire, Fats Domino, Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Sly and the Family Stone, Sam Cooke and Duke Ellington.
He has shared the stage with The Four Tops, Songs of Champlin, Redd Fox, Joe Louis Walker, and was musical director for Tammi Terrell at her performance at Basin Street West in San Francisco. He and his band have toured the western United States and have also done the USO overseas tour, performing music in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.
Locally he's played at the Coyote Valley Casino in Redwood Valley, Shakowah Casino in Hopland, and at the Parducci Winery in Ukiah. He's also performed at Spencer Brewer's Professional Pianist Concert and weekly at the Brooktrails Lodge from 2012 to 2014.
Former Willits resident and musician Susan Stewart has this to say of Frankie. "He is the complete, old school, total soul example of traditional rhythm and blues music. He has been there. He has done it all. He is the master of the kind of music that shaped the kind of music you hear today. He is not to be missed."
For this concert, Mr. J will be performing solo for the first half of the show. During the second half, he will be joined by his band, The Frankie J Orchestra, and together, they will regale the audience with selections from his new album, Songs of Love, including A Woman's Touch, Everything's is Gonna Be Alright, The Day I Become a Man, and Ella.
Tickets for this power packed performance are only $10 and are available online at brownpapertickets.com, by phone at 1-800-838-3006 or in person at Mazahar, 38 South Main Street in Willits.
