An Evening with Bill Champlin and Special Guest Tamara Champlin- Grammy winning rock, funk, and R&B

An Evening with Bill Champlin and Special Guest Tamara Champlin- Grammy winning rock, funk, and R&B - at the Sutter Creek Theatre 2/1 7 pm

Two-time GRAMMY® Award Winner Bill Champlin is known the world over as the soulful singer/keyboardist of the iconic jazz-pop band Chicago. His featured spots on the hits “Look Away” and “Hard Habit to Break” are among his mainstream highlights. But his Songwriting put him on the map and the band he started in the late 60’s called “The Sons of Champlin.”

In 1979, he won his first Grammy® award for co-writing “After the Love is Gone”, which was later recorded by Earth, Wind & Fire. Then in 1981, he won a second Grammy® for co-writing “Turn Your Love Around” for George Benson.

The Sons of Champlin released their first album, “Loosen Up Naturally” in 1969 and followed with six more albums through 1977.

In 1982, Bill joined Chicago to record Chicago 16 where he remained for 28 years as lead vocalist/keyboards. In 1988, Chicago released its biggest-selling single and their last No. 1 hit, “Look Away,” featuring Bill on lead vocal.

Bill’s latest solo release is “No Place Left To Fall” (CD and DVD). This album is career-defining with an honesty and immediacy reflecting his old-school approach to music.

The award winning historic Sutter Creek Theatre is an intimate 215 seat former silent film theatre with superb sound. Beer and wine at the venue. Tickets and video at the web site www.suttercreektheatre.com
