JUSTIN HAYWARD LEGENDARY VOICE OF THE MOODY BLUES

FRIDAY • JUNE 13

Richmond, BC – Best known as the lead vocalist, guitarist and songwriter for the legendary Moody Blues, Justin Hayward has penned and sang many of the group’s mega-hits including “Tuesday Afternoon”, “Ride My See-Saw”, “Question”, “The Story in Your Eyes”, “Your Wildest Dreams” and “I Know You’re Out There Somewhere”. It was in 1966 when the British-born musician answered an ad in The Melody Maker for Eric Burdon and The Animals. This prompted Burdon to pass on Hayward’s letter and demo tape to The Moody Blues’ founding member Mike Pinder which then led to the beginning of an illustrious career spanning five decades with the band. Hayward’s “Fly Me High” was soon released as a Moody Blues single followed by the release of their ageless classic, “Nights in White Satin”.

He released his first solo album, Songwriter in 1977 followed by his collaboration with Jeff Wayne on The War of The Worlds project which brought Hayward a worldwide hit single with “Forever Autumn”. His most recent album, Spirits of the Western Sky was released last year and includes the track, “On the Road To Love” which he co-wrote and sang with Kenny Loggins. The album also features three country & bluegrass influenced songs. He has been honoured with several awards including the prestigious ASCAP Golden Note
Award and the BASCA Gold Badge Award for Lifetime Achievement. Currently touring with The Moody Blues, Hayward will then be embarking on his solo tour which will include a one-night performance at the River Rock Casino Resort on June 13, 2014.

RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT PRESENTS JACK JONES

FRIDAY • MAY 9

Richmond, BC – Grammy Award-winning singer Jack Jones is the very definition of a complete and total entertainer. The New York Times has hailed him as “arguably the most technically accomplished male pop singer”. Born in Hollywood to actors Allan Jones and Irene Hervey, his first break came in 1959 when a demo he recorded for songwriter Don Raye found its way to Capitol Records. While with the label, he released his first album which included the single, “This Could Be The Start Of Something Big”. He then signed on with Kapp Records before moving to RCA Records six years later. As his career gained momentum, Jones developed a deep appreciation for well-constructed songs that also had emotional appeal. His respect for songs that told stories with meaning and beauty led him to record works by the greatest balladeers of all time including Sammy Cahn, Cole Porter and Alan & Marilyn Bergman. He was also inspired by such jazz instrumentalists as Gerry Mulligan, Buddy Rich and Count Basie.

Jones’ talent and commitment to his art earned him two Grammys for “Best Male Pop Vocal Performance” with his singles, “Lollipops and Roses” (1962) and “Wives and Lovers” (1963). His additional hits include “Dear Heart” (1964), “The Race Is On” (1965), “The Impossible Dream” (1966) and “What I Did For Love” (1975). In addition to a successful recording career, his impressive credits include roles in such films as Juke Box Rhythm, The Comeback and Cruise of the Gods, an internationally syndicated TV variety show and performances at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center and the White House. He also recorded popular
theme songs for film and TV including the theme for ABC’s hit series, The Love Boat. With over 50 recorded
albums – seventeen of which charted on Billboard’s Top 20 – and consistently sold-out world tours, he continues to charm audiences with his wit, sensitivity and vocal power. Jack Jones will be performing for one night only at the River Rock Casino Resort on May 9, 2014.

AZIZ ANSARI MODERN ROMANCE

Richmond, BC – Actor-comedian Aziz Ansari has quickly established his presence in the comedy world. The Hollywood Reporter has hailed him as “one of the most prolific writers and performers on the comedy scene in recent years” while Rolling Stone placed him on the cover of a special comedy issue labelling him “The Funniest Man Under 30”. In addition, Paste Magazine named him one of the “Top 10 Comedians of the Decade”. It was in 2000 when the South Carolina native began performing stand-up while attending NYU. He later became known to television audiences in 2007 when he created and starred on MTV’s sketch comedy series, Human Giant. He then went on to memorable guest-starring roles on HBO’s Flight of the Conchords and NBC’s Scrubs. His first stand-up special, Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening aired on Comedy Central in 2010 followed by Dangerously Delicious in 2012. Both specials were later released on DVD/CD.

Ansari’s film credits include I Love You, Man, Observe and Report and 30 Minutes or Less. Last year he voiced the role of “Mub” in the animated film, Epic and appeared as himself in the hit comedy, This Is the End. Currently he can be seen starring as the self-serving “Tom Haverford” opposite Amy Poehler on NBC’s
situation comedy, Parks and Recreation which is now in its sixth season. He has also become a regular on the late-night talk show circuit where he is a frequent guest on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live and NBC’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. He recently landed a book deal with Penguin Press … the yet-to-be-titled book will focus on
“the current era for singles and how the basic issues facing a single person – whom we meet, how we meet them and what happens next – have been radically altered by new technologies.” Ansari is also getting ready to embark on his “Modern Romance” stand-up tour which will include two shows at the River Rock Casino
Resort on March 29, 2014.
