(NEWARK, NJ) -- New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) presents an intimate evening with Musiq Soulchild and Eric Benét on Friday, April 12, 2024 at 8:00pm. Tickets range from $51.50-$111.50.
Philadelphia-born soul jazz musician Musiq Soulchild's unique and smooth sound became integral in the music scene after his debut album, Aijuswanaseing, was released in 2000. The Grammy-nominated R&B star is known for seamlessly fusing jazz, funk, soul, and hip-hop and began on the road to musical stardom by beatboxing and freestyling on the open mic at local jazz clubs.
From barefoot dreadlocked troubadour to suave standard-bearer for contemporary R&B. Eric Benét may have changed his look. Still, one thing has remained consistent: his dedication to crafting authentic music that engages the soul.
"I'm not chasing any current whatever," says Benét, a four-time Grammy Award nominee. "It's about music that gives me goosebumps and touches my soul. That's always been a good barometer for me."
Tickets are available for purchase online, by calling 888. GO.NJPAC (888.466.5722), or by visiting the NJPAC Box Office at 1 Center Street, Newark, New Jersey.
