Now, he’s ready to introduce his music to Southern Nevada, performing songs from his new album, as well as classic hits by Ray Charles and other icons.

Known as the Jonas Brothers’ favorite artist, Benton Paul is quickly making his mark on the music scene. The multi-talented crooner has toured with American Idol alum David Archuleta and has worked with such award-winning artists as The Killers. With two albums under his belt, Paul is back in his hometown, performing his chart-topping pop songs on a new stage. Devoted fans will enjoy such hits as “Run,” “Jen’s Song” and “I Only See.”

Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter John Parr will visit Henderson for the first time as part of his Military Tour 2012, which supports his summer release of his new patriotic album, The Mission.
