The concert will be “A Tribute to Nat King Cole” with Allan Harris.

Somewhere in his career, Harris developed a talent for evoking “King” Cole’s mellow baritone. The similarity between Harris and Cole is a gift, not a gimmick, as many audiences have witnessed the almost identical sound between them. Harris sings all of the Cole favorites. He has cultivated a global following, playing for packed houses and receiving outstanding reviews throughout the United States, Europe and the Far East.
