    Robert Cray Band
    Date: 2023-08-29     Time: 7 PM : 0 minutes

    Robert Cray has been bridging the lines between blues, soul and R&B with five Grammy wins and 20+ celebrated albums– and he’s back on the Outer Cape just ahead of Labor Day weekend on Tuesday, August 29.

    “Funky, cool and bad,” is how Robert Cray describes his latest album, That’s What I Heard. “I thought if it we could get this thing that Sam Cooke used to have, the kind of sound that early Sam Cooke records had, that we could pull this off,” says producer Steve Jordan.

    Over the past four decades, Cray has created a sound that rises from American roots, blues, soul and R&B, with five Grammy wins, 20 acclaimed studio albums and a bundle of live albums that punctuate the Blues Hall of Famer’s career. On That’s What I Heard, Robert celebrates the music of Curtis Mayfield, Bobby “Blue” Bland, The Sensational Nightingales and more, alongside four newly written songs. Listen to the first single “Anything You Want” here (by Robert Cray), available now on all streaming services.
