Sheléa Performs Hits By Alan and Marilyn Bergman at The Wallis in June
The performance is on Saturday, June 25, 2022, 7:30 pm.
Singer, songwriter, and keyboardist Sheléa, whose versatile and powerful voice transcends the boundaries of musical classification, returns to the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts with Pretty World: Through the Eyes of Alan & Marilyn Bergman, on Saturday, June 25, 2022, 7:30 pm.
This special evening features Sheléa, a protégé of Quincy Jones, performing songs written by Alan and Marilyn Bergman, the Oscar-winning married couple whose lyrics to songs such as "The Way We Were," "The Windmills of Your Mind," and "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" have earned them induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. Palm Beach Post proclaims Sheléa, who brought down the house at The Wallis' gala in September, "will sing the lights out all night long on anything you throw at her."
With widespread comparison to the vocal expertise of legendary Whitney Houston, and the piano prowess of Alicia Keys, it is no surprise that artist and actress, Sheléa has garnered endorsements from the likes of Stevie Wonder, Mary J.Blige, Missy Elliott, David Foster, Queen Latifah, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Hudson, Quincy Jones, and more. Blending traditional pop, jazz, R&B and soul, Sheléa brings a contemporary edge to classics, and a classic touch to contemporary pop standards. With years of making a name for herself as a vocal powerhouse, having performed twice at the White House; Library of Congress; Carnegie Hall; the Kennedy Center; and more, 2020 marked her acting debut as Dorinda Clark in The Clark Sisters: The First Ladies of Gospel. The Lifetime biopic drew 2.7 million viewers and "was the strongest original movie for all television for 2020 across key demos including both broadcast and cable." With the film as the top social trend across all television, Sheléa's name was prominently found leading the charge.
