It's become a tradition. Here's a unique chance to hear the legendary blue-eyed soul man himself, with Polly Messer, in an up-close and personal acoustic setting at Grayson & Polly's favorite Connecticut BBQ restaurant and live music venue. They'll be performing some of the songs from Grayson's brand new record "Back To The Soul" as well as Grayson's hits from radio and the movies "Thelma and Louise" and "Fried Green Tomatoes".Howard Dukes, in his recent SoulTracks.com review of Grayson's new album "Back To The Soul", wrote: "Hugh’s life has all of the elements of a music biopic, from his slow and steady climb to fame, through the label politics that derailed his career, veering into self-destructive behavior and finally redemption with the help of good friends and the love of a good woman, and with Back to the Soul, Hugh already has the soundtrack. Hugh, like soul music idols Otis Redding and Marvin Gaye, is at his absolute best when wearing his heart on his sleeve and being totally transparent. In fact, Hugh goes way beyond keeping it real – he keeps it honest. With his feet firmly rooted in the soul and blues of Memphis and New Orleans, Hugh has crafted a record that is about as eloquently biographical as a music project can be."  -Howard Dukes, SoulTracks.com, August 14, 2015"Grayson Hugh has been there and is back again. His story – our story – has to be heard.” - Robert Doerschuk, CMAWorld.com, May 10, 2010 For directions & menu click this link: http://smokinwithchris.com/
