Theo Peoples

Theo Peoples (born Theoplis Peoples, III on January 24, 1961 in St. Louis, Missouri) is an African-American R&B/soul singer. For nearly two decades Theo Peoples’ voice has been critical to the legacy of not just one... but two of Motown’s greatest vocal groups – the 'Temptations' AND 'The Four Tops'! He has earned the singular honor of being the ONLY man to be a member of both legendary groups. Peoples was discovered and hand selected from his hometown (St. Louis MO) to join the 'Temptations' group in 1992. During his six year tenure with them, he recorded on two albums, seizing the spotlight with a flawless rendition of the classic song, "Night and Day" on Mel Gibson's romantic comedy film, 'What Women Want', composing and masterfully singing his own devotional composition, "This Is My Promise”, and singing lead vocals, on the Grammy Award nominated composition, 'Stay' (Phoenix Rising/1998)
Having made his national debut as one of the 'Temptations' and earning the reputation as 'the voice', he once again was a choice pick in1998 by a second legendary group, "The Four Tops" (after original member Lawrence Paytons’ death). Shortly after joining the group, Peoples was personally handed the successor's torch by Levi Stubbs (Four Tops original lead vocalist.. in the year 2000) after his retirement due to illness. After twelve years of touring with the Four Tops, Peoples managed to leave a stamp on their legacy, and paid brilliant homage to Levi Stubbs.. recreating memories of classic 'Four Tops’ songs with his own indelible vocal style. Theo continues to showcase not only his vocal ability, and skills as a musician in premier private clubs around the world, but is ecstatic reconnecting with his fans and friends, in a more, 'up close and personal' manner..What can fans expect from a live experience with Theo? Loving homage to his Motown roots mixed in with his own unique take on smooth R&B balladry, Classic Rock and Jazz~ a performance that won't disappoint! Make an effort, a time, a date to enjoy a talent that is truly achieved singular accomplishment......................THEO "The Voice”! .
