DESCRIPTION:Showtimes:  7:30pm and 9:30pm \n\n\n\nThe iconic Rita Graham performs with the Arthur Turner Trio! \n\n\n\nRita Graham’s career as a jazz vocalist was jump-started when Ray Charles produced an album of lush standards for her in 1969.

She originated the role of Coretta Scott King in the Civil Rights Theater Musical\, ‘Selma’\, produced by Redd Foxx Productions in Los Angeles\, and off Broadway’s New Federal Theatre\, produced by Woodie King\, Jr. \n\n\n\nAs the lead vocalist in Rita and The Tiaras\, Ms. Graham recorded the UK Northern Soul Hit Classic\, ‘Gone With The Wind Is My Love’. The Tiaras were studio singers whom Rita never met. A track from the Vibrations album\, ‘My Cup Runneth Over With Love’ is also a Northern Soul Hit. \n\n\n\nFrom 1999-2009\, Ms. Graham was known as ‘The First Lady Of Sambuca Jazz Café’\, Atlanta’s premiere Showroom\, where the CD\, ‘Rita Graham Live at Sambuca Atlanta’ was recorded.
