SA: Fagrie Isaacs to present Luther Vandross tribute show
South African singing sensation Fagrie Isaacs will perform a tribute show for the late Luther Vandross titled Here and Now at Hillsong Church in Century City, Cape Town, on 12 November.
- Fagrie Isaacs will perform a number of songs by the late Luther Vandross.
Isaacs will be joined by other artists, including Salome, Andrea Fortuin and former Idols winner Jody Williams, as well as comedian Carl Weber who will be the MC for the event.
The show is courtesy of SME and Fi6 Music. Isaacs said he’ll perform a selection of the late R&B star’s popular ballads and his personal favourite hits including ‘Impossible Dream’, ‘Here and Now’, ‘Power of Love’, and many more. The gig will feature a full stage production with a live band, backing vocals, and all the bells and whistles, the singer said.
Isaacs boasts nearly 35 years of experience entertaining audiences across the world with his stage presence and soulful voice. He has performed a number of cover songs before including 'Always and Forever' and 'Evergreen' by Luther Vandross'.
“As a long-time fan of the dynamic and talented late Luther Vandross, I never had the opportunity to experience a live Luther event so I intend to offer my audience the opportunity to experience what I think I would have if I attended one of his shows,” Isaacs said. “I want my audience to experience my love and admiration for Luther and give them a taste of what it could have been like if he was alive to do his own show.”
“I have been performing for more than 35 years, but only this year I decided to do singing as a full-time career. I have had smaller shows and productions in small venues but this would be my first big production in a large venue since COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted and we intend to pull out all the stops with this production.”
