   (Los Angeles, CA) Join us at the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills, CA at 8pm for   
   the funky grooves of headliner Charles Wright & The Watts 103rd Street Rhythm   
   Band! Special musical guests include The Original Lakeside, Bloodstone and   
   Chanté Moore will keep    
   the stage hot until the ball drops. A champagne toast and party favors help   
   you bring in 2016 with fireworks, fun and soul music from many decades.   
      
   Charles Wright, the multitalented musician, singer and leader of The Watts   
   103rd Street Rhythm Band has made good use of his of his decades in the   
   business. With a career that spans from the band's formation in the '60s to   
   the continual sampling of hit    
   song, "Express Yourself" in today's media, Charles Wright and the Watts 103rd   
   Street Rhythm Band's legacies are stronger than ever. "Express Yourself" has   
   been covered and sampled by the biggest names in Hip Hop and R&B, appearing in   
   national television    
   commercials and major movie soundtracks including "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" and the   
   N.W.A. movie: "Straight Out of Compton."   
      
   Proving that good music and artistry can withstand the test of time, Charles   
   Wright has had an active solo career - releasing twenty-nine albums for   
   independent and major labels. His latest single "I'll Give You Time"   
   https://youtu.be/3wZrYWA7V2k is a    
   sweet and playful throwback to the days of torch songs and perfectly   
   syncopated background singers. Wright's music appeals to listeners of all ages   
   and this upcoming New Year's Eve performance will definitely increase his   
   loyal listeners and adoring fans.   
    Though highly regarded for expert musicality, creativity and an unmatched   
   Soul, Funk, Pop and Blues sound, Charles has a habit of defying expectations.   
      
   Charles will be spending the evening celebrating his many accomplishments in   
   2015 not only the release of the new album - Let's Make Love Tonight but also   
   the November publication of his first autobiography, "UP From Where We've   
   Come," (currently    
   available as an e-book and audiobook - online and in bookstores). UP From   
   Where We've Come is a firsthand account of the struggles and triumphs that   
   generations of Wright's family faced. It is an insight-filled journey of a   
   sharecropper's son from    
   Mississippi who picked cotton, grew up in abject poverty but rises to the top   
   as a Hollywood Soul Music Legend. The 56-chapter book is a chronicle of   
   historical significance, cultural importance and evident inspiration. (The   
   hardcover version of the book    
   will be released in time for Black History Month in February 2016).   
      
   This New Year's Eve concert's special musical guests are sure to pack the   
   dance floor and make the last great night of 2015 fly by! The celebration   
   continues with The Original Lakeside the Midwest-formed R&B funk band   
   responsible for hits such as "It's    
   All The Way Live," "Your Wish Is My Command" and their biggest hit, "Fantastic   
   Voyage". Genre-crossing chameleons known as Bloodstone ("Natural High" &   
   "You're Still A Young Man") are set to bring their soul, funk and funky rock   
   sound to the evening's    
   eager audience. Vocal powerhouse Chanté Moore - one of the stars of "R&B   
   Divas: LA" will be performing her own signature brand of quintessential quiet   
   storm jams like, "It's Alright" and "Chanté's Got A Man". Moore's recent   
   "Unsung" episode was one of TV    
   One's highest rated episodes for 2015.   
      
   THESE LIVE PERFORMANCES ARE GUARANTEED TO SPICE UP THE NIGHT AND BRIGHTEN THE   
   NEW YEAR!
