Sat, May 14, Brian McKnight
Cache Creek Club 88, 8 p.m., $59-$85
Brian McKnight holds a record for having been nominated for 16 Grammy awards without ever winning. He also has the kind of soulful voice you want to get intimate with, in a stripped-down acoustic set without frills or extra band members. Fortunately, he’ll be doing just that in the Just Me tour, promoting a new album of the same name releasing this July—his 14th. On tour with him is his musically talented family, including brother Claude McKnight from the Grammy-winning, a cappella gospel group Take 6; and his sons B.J. McKnight and Niko McKnight, who perform in alt-pop band BRKN RBTS. 14455 Highway 16 in Brooks, www.bmcknight.com.
