As part of their latest international tour, four-time Grammy-winning Boyz II Men will bring their signature R&B sounds and famous hits to Raleigh in concert with the North Carolina Symphony, Thursday, March 28, at 7:30pm at downtown Raleigh’s Meymandi Concert Hall.
Made up of Nathan Morris, Wanya Morris, and Shawn Stockman, members of Boyz II Men met as students at the prestigious Philadelphia High School for Creative and Performing Arts. In a career that has spanned more than 20 years and 15 albums, the group has made a mark with distinctive individual voices and peerless harmonies.
“Boyz II Men brings swooning tunes, stunning voices,” wrote The Dallas News in March 2012. “Dressed in black slacks, white shirts, black vests and ties, the Boyz oozed gentlemanly class. Couple that with wooing tunes such as “On Bended Knee,” “Water Runs Dry,” “I’ll Make Love to You” and “End of the Road” — all of which got the ladies swooning — and you have the perfect recipe for a modern-day courtship even Mama would approve of.”
Tickets to “Boyz II Men” go on sale Nov. 14 at 10 a.m., and range from $38 to $89. For more information, go to the North Carolina Symphony’s website at www.ncsymphony.org, or call 919.733.2750 or toll free 877.627.6724.
Meymandi Concert Hall is located in the Progress Energy Center for the Performing Arts, 2 E. South St., in Raleigh.
