Queen Latifah to Perform in Troy

- October 14, 2007

TROY, N.Y. – Grammy Award-winning actress and singer Queen Latifah visits the Troy Savings Bank Music Hall on Friday, Oct. 26, at 8 p.m.

Queen Latifah will perform highlights from her latest album, the September release "Trav’lin’ Light" on the jazz label Verve Records and produced by three-time Grammy winner Tommy LiPuma and Geffen Records chairman Ron Fair. Her most recent offering covers standards performed by such jazz greats as Nina Simone, Roberta Flack, Sarah Vaughn, Peggy Lee and Etta James. It is the follow-up to her critically acclaimed and Grammy-nominated release "The Dana Owens Album" (2004) that paid homage to those from the 1920s through the 1970s who have influenced Latifah’s singing. For this performance, Queen Latifah is backed by a 13-piece big band.

A celebrated hip-hop artist with six popular rap albums under her belt and a 1995 Grammy for best rap solo performance for her single “U.N.I.T.Y.,” Queen Latifah also is an actress, with starring roles in "The Bone Collector," "Hairspray" and "Chicago," for which she earned an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress, as well as Golden Globe and SAG Award nominations.

Tickets are $85 and $79, and may be purchased through the box office by calling 518-273-0038 or at www.troymusichall.org. The box office is open 90 minutes prior to the performance and weekdays at its business office at 30 Second St. from 10 a.m.to 5 p.m.
