ABOUT
For years, George Benson has attracted large audiences at the North Sea Jazz Festival. This man from Pittsburgh grew up as a talented guitarist noticeably influenced by the legendary Wes Montgomery. In the 1960s, it was Miles Davis who first recognized his talent and asked him to play on the album Miles in the Sky. In the 70s, Benson took a more commercial direction and this delivered him immediate success. Songs like On Broadway and Give Me the Night are among the classics that he still performs. But Benson is a man who is also slowly turning to styles like smooth jazz and R&B. In 2006, he recorded the album Givin' It Up with Al Jarreau. They won a Grammy for the album and did a world tour together. At the festival, Benson will be focusing on the repertoire of Nat King Cole. Last year, he toured successfully with this project in his own country.During this tribute, Benson performs his own interpretations of classics like Stardust, Looking Back and Nature Boy. He is currently working on a new album together with the guitarist and keyboards player of Toto.
