Richard Shelton Presents 'Sinatra and Me at Christmas' Concert
By: Emily Bruno Dec. 07, 2017
For 1-night only, internationally acclaimed performer, Richard Shelton, is bringing his unique take on Frank Sinatra, jazz and swing back to Vitello's in Studio City.
Hot on the heels of performing for British and European royalty and a recent sold-out run in London and New York, Richard Shelton presents 'SINATRA AND ME - at Christmas' a show which tells the true-life story of the incredible synchronicity linking him with Frank Sinatra.
But it's also about hope and making dreams come true which Shelton knows a lot about - aged 50 he left a successful TV career in his native UK to pursue a dream of a life in LA and the results have been astonishing, which he shares in the show.
Shelton, ('Jane the Virgin', 'House of Lies') was nominated as 'Best Actor in a Leading Role' for his portrayal of Frank Sinatra in the hard-hitting drama 'Rat Pack Confidential' on the London stage.
In 'SINATRA AND ME', Shelton reignites the charisma and magnetism of Sinatra singing the hits and weaving in true life coincidences, including a moment when he don's 'Ol Blue Eyes' very own tuxedo and sings, 'I've Got You Under My Skin'!
Shelton has performed for British and European royalty, to sell-out crowds in concert halls and jazz clubs across the globe and privately for stars Sir Elton John.
In the US, Richard regularly plays at the exclusive members-only club, Soho House West Hollywood and New York, and in Palm Springs and on the LA Jazz Circuit.
He was recently nominated as 'Best Supporting Actor' at both the Chicago Horror and London Horror Film Festivals for his work as Detective Forbes in the film, Do Not Disturb.
Richard's debut US album, 'An Englishman in Love in L.A', was recorded at Capitol Studios along with Sinatra's band mates and takes the audience on a nostalgic, yet innovative musical journey with beautiful, fresh arrangements, inspired by new jazz and swing, as well as Sinatra's classic works. The original title track celebrates life's new beginnings in the style of 'Come Fly with Me' meets 'Fly Me to the Moon,' and the new, gentle ballad version of 'It's Not Unusual' tugs at the heart strings.
