The Voice Finalist, Nicholas David, Performs with His Band in A CELEBRATION OF JOYFUL GIVING

Hennepin Theatre Trust announced today that St. Paul-based soul singer-songwriter Nicholas David, whose many appearances on "The Voice" have brought him national attention, will join his band The Feelin' for a special holiday show at the Pantages Theatre (710 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis) on Sunday, Dec. 4 at 7 p.m. David's annual St. Nick's Day Show, "A Celebration of Joyful Giving," will feature many of the songs he has made his own plus a selection of holiday favorites. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, Oct. 28 at 10 a.m. at the State Theatre Box Office, charge-by-phone at (800) 982-2787 and online at HennepinTheatreTrust.org.

A portion of the show proceeds will go to Keys 4/4 Kids, which repurposes donated pianos in ways that inspire hope, promote the love of music, provide educational opportunities and empower creative expression. Toys for Tots donations will also be accepted at the door.

Nicholas David is a vibrant, dynamic and multi-talented singer-songwriter from St. Paul and for more than a decade. He has composed alternative soul music that connects with people worldwide on a deeply human level. Prior to his unforgettable 2012 run with Team CeeLo on NBC's "The Voice," David had already recorded five critically acclaimed albums, experienced national radio airplay and participated in multiple charity and collaborative projects. Fans of "The Voice" were introduced to his soulful and storied career during this time where he struck a chord with America and finished a fan favorite in the top three.

David's music incorporates multiple genres and influences ranging from Prince to Beethoven. His powerful voice, enriching lyrics and liquid piano playing set him apart and are the reason Skope Magazine calls him "an authentic artist of this millennium." His captivating melodies embody an unbridled passion for music, and his lyrics convey the thoughts of a truly humble, intelligent and genuine human being.

When it comes to his iconic live shows, David is a one-of-a-kind, must-see act. As if channeling inspiration from an outside source, the instant he walks on stage he gives himself over to the music. Fans have even gone as far to speak of his performances as a spiritual service that they actually want to attend. His emotional approach to songwriting and performing is the very reason the thriving Twin Cities music scene affectionately nicknamed him "the feelin."

David has continued to use music as a vehicle for positive change. He has made it a priority in between touring to give back to children. From charities that fill backpacks with food to coat drives during cold Minnesota winters, David is constantly searching for ways to not only speak the language of the heart, but to live it as well.

David and his own label, Wake the World, are among an emerging group of conscious capitalists and eco-entrepreneurs focused on minimizing environmental impact. All CD packaging and mailings feature "green" designs, utilizing recycled materials and FSC-certified products.
