The Whispers and Jeffery Osborne will perform the Annual Mother’s Day Weekend Concert at The NYCB Theatre at Westbury on Saturday, May 10 at 8 p.m.
One of R&B music’s most legendary and beloved groups, The Whispers began their career in 1963, perfecting their tight harmonies on the street corners of Los Angeles and in nightclubs around the San Francisco area. With an impressive catalogue of hits over the course of 40 years, they continued to rack up seven gold albums, two platinum albums, and 12 top 20 singles. Their quintessential hits include “And the Beat Goes on,” “Rock Steady” and “It’s a Love Thing.”
Launching his professional career in 1969 with the popular funk and soul group L.T.D., Osborne always knew that R&B was for him. After a decade with the band as the lead vocalist, he decided to pursue a solo career, which produced such Top 40 hits as “Don’t You Get So Mad,” “Stay With Me Tonight” and a duet with Dionne Warwick entitled “Love Power.”
