Aretha Franklin taught us how to “Think” and demand “Respect” while cruising on the “Freeway of Love!” On February 16, CeCe Teneal brings Portrait of Aretha to Paramount Hudson Valley, celebrating the Queen of Soul with soulful interpretations of both beloved hits and hidden gems from Franklin’s legendary 50-year career. Expect stirring renditions of classics like “Chain of Fools,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Rock Steady,” and “Until You Come Back to Me (That’s What I’m Gonna Do).” An award-winning vocalist in her own right, CeCe Teneal has earned four Independent Music Award nominations, winning Best R&B Album in 2011 for Train from Osteen and Best Soul/Funk/Fusion Song in 2018 for “Danger.” She’s also received the 2015 Touch the Mic “Muse” Award, the 2017 Orlando Music Trailblazer Award, and headlined halftime at the 2019 Citrus Bowl. Don’t miss this unforgettable tribute to the Queen of Soul!
