Krystle Dos Santos - Songs in the Key of Life: A Celebration of Stevie Wonder
A joy-forward homage to the influential creator.
Backed by an all-star 11-piece ensemble comprising Vancouver's best musicians, including very special guest vocalists Janelle Reid and Josh Wyper, and recent Canada's Got Talent contestant Carsim Birmingham, Krystle Dos Santos guarantees nothing but the best from Stevie Wonder's five decades of hit-making.
Performing the Wonder catalogue with deep groove and respect for the songs that shaped generations, Kyrstle’s band promises to deliver mind-blowing renditions of favourites including “Sir Duke,” “Isn’t She Lovely,” “Living for the City” and more. From dance-floor burners to soul-soaked ballads, expect bold harmonies, impeccable musicianship, and that unmistakable Stevie spirit that turns a concert into a room-wide singalong. Stevie’s catalogue brought joy to the world. This night brings the joy right back.
For 50 years, Stevie Wonder has been one of the brightest lights in contemporary soul, pop, R&B, and funk music. A perennial critic's favourite, with 25 Grammy's to his name, Stevie Wonder continues to represent the best of American music.
Vancouver-based singer-songwriter Krystal Dos Santos is known for her powerful soul, jazz, and R&B vocals and for her cabaret shows Hey Viola and History of Motown. At a Stevie Wonder concert, she volunteered to sing with the icon. Sitting beside him on his piano bench, Krystle nailed it. So, this concert was meant to be! For those who missed the debut of this sold-out concert in Vancouver last year, here’s your chance to catch it, or experience it again!
