Matt Wilson Plays TexARTS Cabaret Series, 9/19

The TexARTS Cabaret Series kicks off its third season by welcoming piano/singer/songwriter Matt Wilson to the intimate Kam and James Morris Theatre. The evening will showcase Wilson's powerful gospel voice as he sings his soulful rock-n-roll originals and a number of cover tunes with an energy and artistry equal to the original.

Wilson has played every kind of concert venue there is, from a Broadway theater in New York City to a packed and rockin' bar on Austin's famed 6th Street. He gained national exposure wowing sold out audiences as the "Piano Man" in the first national tour of the Billy Joel, Tony-Award winning musical "Movin' Out."

Matt Wilson and the Matt Wilson Band will perform Friday, Sept. 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the TexARTS Kam and James Morris Theatre (2300 Lohman's Spur, Austin, TX 78734). The lounge opens one hour prior to curtain. Single ticket prices are $25. For tickets and information call the TexARTS Box Office at 512-852-9079 x101 or visit www.tex-arts.org
