Herb Alpert And Lani Hall Coming To The Kentucky Center In July

Kentucky Performing Arts will present Herb Alpert & Lani Hall on Sunday, July 21, 2024 at 7:00 p.m. at The Kentucky Center – Bomhard Theater (501 West Main Street).

A legendary trumpet player, Alpert's extraordinary musicianship has earned him five #1 hits, nine GRAMMY Awards, the latest from his 2014 album, “Steppin' Out,” fifteen Gold albums, fourteen Platinum albums and has sold over 72 million records.

Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass propelled his sound into the pop music limelight, at one point outselling the Beatles two to one. In 1966, they achieved the since-unmatched feat of simultaneously having four albums in the Top 10 – and five in the Top 20. Herb Alpert also has the distinction of being the only artist who has had a #1 instrumental and a #1 vocal single.

Two-time Grammy Award-winning vocalist and producer Lani Hall started her singing career in 1966 as the lead singer of Sergio Mendes's breakthrough group, Brasil '66. She left behind her city roots in Chicago and for five years performed throughout the world. While Lani's singing career took her on the road, she also focused on her writing—committing to the page her personal impressions of the world around her. Sergio Mendes further expanded her writing career by asking Lani to write the English lyrics for many of the band's Brazilian songs.
