Grammy winning singer songwriter Lionel Richie is performing at this year’s Curacao North Sea Jazz Festival. Today, we can also add bassist Richard Bona to the already impressive festival programme. The first edition of the Curacao North Sea Jazz Festival will take place Friday September 3rd and Saturday September 4th 2010 at the World Trade Center, Piscadera Bay, Curacao. Still more names will supplement the line-up in the weeks ahead.
International superstar Lionel Richie is best known for his numerous unforgettable hits like ‘All Night Long’, ‘Hello’, ‘Penny Lover’ and ‘Dancing on the Ceiling’. He worked on his latest album ‘Just Go’ with R&B superstar Akon, among others. The album is the ultimate mix of the tender ballads so characteristic of the singer, and swinging songs that will have you up on your feet.
Cameroonian bassist and singer Richard Bona released his new album ‘Ten shades of Blues’ earlier this month. For this album Bona travelled the world to play the blues with musicians from all continents, everywhere with its own local nuance. Richard Bona is considered one of the best bassists of his time.
