DESCRIPTION:Showtimes are at 7:30p & 9:30p for this performance. \n(Doors open at 5pm for dinner/Seating begins at 6:15p for the first show & 9:00p for the second show) \n**************************************************************************************************​\nOne of Detroit’s premiere live entertainers over the past ten years plus\, Ben Sharkey infuses his live performances with a hip and sultry fire\, bringing his artful swagger to the stage with a\ncolorful fusion of old school cool\, contemporary jazz\, soul and pop. Since the charismatic\nvocalist posted his first raw home videos of himself singing Michael Buble and Frank Sinatra\nclassics to YouTube in 2007\, he has amassed over 5 million views worldwide for over 70 clips. \nBy increasingly popular demand\, the Michigan native has amassed hundreds of performances at jazz hotspots like Cliff Bell’s and a five year and counting residency at the Axis Lounge at the MGM Grand Detroit. He’s been compared to everyone from Frank and Buble to Dean Martin\, Mel Torme and Harry Connick\, Jr. – yet he’s evolved from being a stellar vocal interpreter to master storyteller and songwriter. \nCollaborating with his pianist Chris Codish\, Ben has written clever\, crafty tunes expressing every aspect of love\, deep heartfelt connections and the sheer joy of living life to the fullest in the sexiest\, naughtiest\, most sensual and playful way possible. Stylistically\, he lets his muse lead the way to booming percussion driven landscapes infused with jazz\, pop\, swing\, R&B\, Latin and crisp\, edgy house-dance beats that make him the ultimate contemporary hipster as well as a masterful throwback artist.

SUMMARY:Ben Sharkey & the Woodward Horns
DESCRIPTION:Singer Ben Sharkey is what you might call an “old soul.” In an age when flip-flops pass muster in church\, he wears tuxedos with the playful ease of a young Frank Sinatra. And while oversexualized lyrics and synthetic dance beats dominate the current top 40\, Sharkey croons classic love songs infused with jazz\, bossa nova\, salsa and pop.
