The incomparable Jill Scott will be calling the House of Blues home for a couple of days next week and it is safe to say she’ll have quite a few of her friends and well wishers there to keep her company. The always soulful Ms. Scott will be headlining at the Sunset Strip hotspot on four different nights next week beginning Tuesday. She’s currently touring in support of her latest release on the Hidden Beach label, “The Real Thing: Words And Sounds Vol. 3.”
Scott will be performing Tuesday through Thursday and again on Saturday. All shows begin at 9 p.m. For tickets visit the House of Blues Web site at www.hob.com. Tickets are $45 each and be sure to get them early because it is anticipated that most of her dates will be sold out, standing room only affairs.
