Apologies for our earlier mistake in writing that David Gray's concert was moved to Capitol Theatre. It is at Ruth Eckerd Hall at 7:30 p.m. Details on what you can expect at tonight's show below:
Raspy-voiced singer-songwriter David Gray (pictured) hasn’t made any considerable changes to his formula after 17 years. His eighth and most recent album, 2009’s Draw The Line, is awash with crisp instrumentation, strings and lush harmonies. “Full Steam,” a duet with Annie Lennox, is a blissful piano-driven exchange that builds into a glorious chant showcasing Lennox’s legendary pipes. On his current North American tour, Grey is due to debut some new material from an understated, stripped-down album cut the same time as Line, and due out later this year. 7:30 p.m. Tues., April 13, Ruth Eckerd Hall, 1111 N. McMullen Booth Rd., Clearwater, $27.50-$47.50, rutheckerdhall.com. –Matthew Spencer
