About this concert
Acclaimed singer and songwriter Gregory Porter was raised in Bakersfield, California, and he cites the Bakersfield Southern Gospel sound, as well as his mothers Nat King Cole record collection, as fundamental influences on his own sound. Porter began singing in small jazz clubs in San Diego while attending San Diego State University on a football scholarship. Eventually Porter moved to New York City to pursue music full-time and his career began to ascend with the release of his first two albums, Water (2010) and Be Good (2012), both of which received GRAMMY nominations. In 2013, he released his breakout Blue Note debut Liquid Spirit which quickly grew into a global phenomenon, selling more than a million albums and earning Porter his first GRAMMY Award with NPR declaring him Americas Next Great Jazz Singer.

Gregory is amazing, I was finally able to see him live! Great voice and great human being, he's very charismatic. The only weak point of the show was technical difficulties. I found it very disrespectful to Gregory and to the audience that his microphone was shot to hell, specially after the technical staff somehow took 30 minutes to set up the equipment after the opening act. 5 (infinite) stars to Gregory and his band, disappointed by the venue and technical staff.

Entitled Christmas Wish it is a loving tribute to his favorite time of year – and to great songwriters, singers, and interpreters including Stevie Wonder, Ella Fitzgerald, Marvin Gaye, Dinah Washington, and Nat King Cole. In addition to this list of world class names, Porter himself has added to the Christmas songbook with three original tracks, soon to be favorites for the festive season, including the first single “Everything’s Not Lost” which is out now.
