Internationally acclaimed performer, Richard Shelton, is bringing his hit show, 'SINATRA AND ME' back to Vitello’s eSpot Lounge on Thursday, March 2, 2017 at 8:00 PM. He sold out his first performance at the hottest jazz spot in the valley last month - and he's been asked back!
Hot on the heels of his sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and a command performance at Catalina Jazz Club, Shelton’s ‘SINATRA AND ME’ tells the story of the incredible synchronicity between his life and Sinatra’s, and reignites the charisma and magnetism of Frank Sinatra. Shelton, who is best known to UK television audiences as the charmingly murderous Dr. Adam Forsythe on the hit UK television series Emmerdale, has been a lifelong fan of Sinatra’s work and was nominated for ‘Best Actor in a Leading Role’ for his portrayal of Frank Sinatra in the hit West End drama Rat Pack Confidential.
Shelton has performed to sell-out crowds at London’s Coliseum Theatre and the legendary Ronnie Scott’s jazz club. He has performed for British Royalty and stars including Sir Elton John. In the US, Richard regularly plays at the exclusive members-only club, Soho House West Hollywood. US audiences have seen Shelton on Showtime’s House of Lies, and will see him soon when he recurs on Jane the Virgin. He was recently nominated as ‘Best Supporting Actor’ at both the Chicago and London Horror Film Festivals for his work as Detective Forbes in the film, Do Not Disturb.
Richard’s debut US album, 'An Englishman in Love in L.A.,’ was recorded at Capitol Studios along with Sinatra's band mates and takes the audience on a nostalgic, yet innovative musical journey with beautiful, fresh arrangements, inspired by new jazz and swing, as well as Sinatra’s classic works. The original title track celebrates life’s new beginnings in the style of ‘Come Fly with Me’ meets ‘Fly Me to the Moon,’ and the new, gentle ballad version of ‘It’s Not Unusual’ tugs at the heart strings.
Tickets for Richard Shelton's 'SINATRA AND ME' start at $20. They are available online.
