Out & About: Smokey Robinson

Andy Argyrakis

Legendary singer/songwriterSmokey Robinson continues lending his velvety voice to worthwhile causes, including this performance at the Special Olympics 50th Anniversary Celebration Concert (alongside Chance The Rapper, Usher, Jason Mraz and many others). In addition to being Motown’s main man, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer is also regarded for more recent releases such as the gospel album Food For The Spirit, the standards collection Timeless Love and the duets project Smokey & Friends.
