Hybrid Jazz From Trish Hennessey - with Richard Shelton!

Hybrid Jazz From Trish Hennessey

THIS man. (She needs to pause) Whew! Richard Shelton is a seasoned, sure, seamless professional. A Los Angeles based performer who is originally from Great Britain. Award-winning. With so many credentials within his resume that it's staggering to list them all HERE. Richard is known, revered and loved in the United Kingdom. His voice is familiar at BBC Radio 2. His character of Adam Forsythe in the long-running TV drama, "Emmerdale" is buzzworthy. As is the FACT that he is one of the world's leading interpreters of Frank Sinatra music. He was named Best Actor in a Leading Role in the (again) award-winning, "Rat Pack Confidential" in London's West End. There are solo albums at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles and at Abbey Road back home. There are roles that are unforgettable in his NEW home. You might be familiar with Richard via his work in "House of Lies" and "Jane the Virgin." He has performed in front of Prince Charles, Sir Elton John, with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and in places all over the globe that only the CHOSEN could possibly attain. Film, TV, Radio, Theater - the founder of Bridewell in London where Shakespeare has flourished (one of the reasons why yours truly adores him!). MORE than any of this, though, is something you need to hear. Richard's Mom died of cancer when he was 12. He has done charitable work for those in need as an adult. And it's important to discuss that when he arrives on our show come April 3rd. He'll be in L.A. - after taking care of an ill relative in London. This is the kind of man he is. A SUPERSTAR from his point of origin. And yet he has made it a point to keep in touch so that this show can flow smoothly. I already love him :) You will as well. Let's celebrate!
