SF: VALERIE SIMPSON IN "A TRIBUTE TO NICK ASHFORD" - OPENS TONIGHT

SF: VALERIE SIMPSON IN "A TRIBUTE TO NICK ASHFORD"

Valerie Simpson will present "A Tribute to Nick Ashford" at RRAZZ ROOM at THE HOTEL NIKKO (222 Mason Street, San Francisco, CA - 415-394-1189) on Tuesday through Friday, May 8th through 11th at 8:00 pm; Saturday, May 12th at 7:00 & 9:30 pm; and Sunday, May 13th at 7:00 pm. Valerie Simpson wrote some of the greatest love songs of a generation with her husband and writing partner, Nick Ashford. But when he died of throat cancer in August, 2011, at the age of 70, Simpson was cast adrift. After spending more than four decades together, during which time they turned out Motown classics like "Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing", "Solid" and "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" (as well as a series of their own hits as the duo Ashford and Simpson), she didn't know if she would ever get back onstage. Now she is back with her new show, a loving musical tribute to Mr. Nick Ashford. Valerie will perform all their greatest hits in this moving once in a lifetime concert experience. The RRazz Room has been the bay area "home" of Nick & Val since it's inception, and is proud to be the venue that Ms. Simpson has personally chosen to debut her new show. There is a $45-$50-$55 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
