Grammy Award Winner Macy Gray To Celebrate 25th Anniversary With Show On Long Island

LONG ISLAND, NY — Grammy Award-winning songstress Macy Gray will be celebrating her 25th Anniversary Tour with a show at the Patchogue Theatre for the Performing Arts on Nov. 7.

She burst onto the music scene with her distinctive voice showcased in her debut album, "On How Life Is," in 1999. Her breakthrough single, "I try," peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, and won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 43rd Annual Grammy Awards, according to Wikipedia.org.

Her vocals defy easy comparison: gritty, yet playful and tender, yet raw — drawing loose parallels to icons like Tina Turner and Billie Holiday, all the while remaining entirely her own, event organizers say.

"Blending clever, sharp songwriting with a rich mix of soul, funk, and hip-hop, Gray carved out a style that feels both timeless and refreshingly original," the promo states. "With unmatched charisma and a voice like no other, she continues to prove that her artistry is every bit as bold and unforgettable as her sound."

A meet and greet package includes one premium reserved ticket in the first five rows, an exclusive post-show meet and greet with Gray, a personal photograph with her, and autographed 8 x 10 photo (or tour poster). It will also include an exclusive Gray merchandise item, and laminate and lanyard.

The packages are limited.

Tickets will run $50 to $80, including fees.
