AARON NEVILLE

AARON NEVILLE: BRING ON THE SOUL

New one-hour music intensive radio special features Aaron Neville performing classics songs by the all-time great R&B artists - Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding, the Staple Singers, Al Green and many more who have inspired Aaron throughout his own legendary career.

"Singing them," Aaron says, "especially in the aftermath of Katrina, was a deeply spiritual experience. They helped me get through. They gave me hope. And for me, music has always been about hope."

You'll hear these exclusive comments alongside his own versions recorded for his new CD, Bring it on Home: The Soul Classics, as well as bonus performances of Neville's favorites unavailable anywhere else.

He also details these unique arrangements created for his distinctive high, rich tenor, and the great musicians who joined him in the studio - Mavis Staples, Chaka Khan, Dr. John, Chris Botti, and a few members of his storied musical family.
