SAN FRANCISCO: AN EVENING WITH AMEL LARRIEUX
YOSHI'S (1330 Fillmore Street, San Francisco, CA - 415-655-5600) will present an extended performance with intermission, with GRAMMY-nominated singer/songwriter Amel Larrieux on Friday, October 31st at 8:30 pm. An urban chanteuse by birth, Amel Larrieux grew up in a West Village "artists building" in New York City, her parents exposing her early to a community of artists and artistic experiences that would mold her eclectic sensibilities. At the age of 18, sure that she wanted to express herself musically, Amel wrote and demoed a song, which led to her pairing with Bryce Wilson to form the duo Groove Theory. As lead vocalist and co-writer for the group, she enjoyed success with "Tell Me," which broke the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 and the top five on the R&B chart before being certified gold in October 1995. In her solo debut in 2000, Infinite Possibilities (Epic Records), Amel fuses a range of genres • R&B, soul, hip-hop, jazz and folk, with flashes of Middle Eastern, West African, and Indian styles. Its single "Get Up" is an ode to working people that became a modern anthem and magnet for the growing legion of Amel's fans. Amel has contributed to film soundtracks, writing and singing in such films as Barbershop, Love Jones, Down To Earth, Sunset Park, Takers, and Why Did I Get Married. There is a $55-$65 cover.
