PRiNCE ROGERS NELSON was an iconic, beloved, critically acclaimed, multi-award winning, singer-songwriter, multi instrumentalist/ musician and producer regarded as one of the greatest musicians of his generation, and inarguably, of all recorded music history. Prince’s music featured a variety of styles – including, but not limited to: soul, R&B, funk, jazz and rock, – influencing and inspiring countless musicians and artists who followed.

Chris brings his own production of Prince’s music to the Jazz Room. He and his all-star band will perform a mix of well-known hits, personal favourites, and a few songs by artists who inspired Prince, as well as Prince gems covered by other artists.
