 A Brief History of White Music
The premise of the show is simple: what if mainstream pop songs
originally sung by white artists were re-interpreted by a trio of African-American
performers? Everyone knows that the roots of American pop music are in the
African-American culture: ragtime, jazz and blues. Even the Beatles cited rhythm &
blues as their inspiration. This show turns the tables a bit by taking music of Buddy
Holly, the Mamas and the Papas, Sonny & Cher, Elvis, and the Beatles, and giving them
a fresh treatment, full of soul and jazz and snazzy moves. It’s the songs you grew up
loving…as they’ve never been sung before: That’ll Be the Day, Where the
Boys Are, Blue Suede Shoes, Downtown, Imagine
