BRADD MARQUIS, kicked off 2023 with the 1st leg of his “THE MUSIC OF SAM COOKE – A CHANGE IS GONNA COME TOUR,” to rave reviews. A fantastic new show depicting the life and music of one of America’s most iconic and talented performers, the legendary Sam Cooke. Recently celebrated by Rolling Stone and ranking at #3 on the list as The 200 Greatest Singers of All Time.
“It is truly an honor to continue to keep the legacy alive of one of the greatest performers ever,” mentions Bradd. “With the recent 58th celebratory Anniversary since the release of his iconic song, “A Change Is Gonna Come.” it is only right to kick-off the new year with “Change” in our minds,” he adds.
Bradd Marquis transports you back in time through the life of Sam Cooke. He explores his journey from the son of a preacher in Clarksdale, Mississippi, to his recruitment into the number one Gospel group in Chicago, The Soul Stirrers. We journey with him as he crosses over into secular music, his rise to a pop icon, and his tragic death as he begins his transformation into a social activist.
