On Wednesday, November 5th, S.O.B.'s presents a night of soulful R&Bsounds with ANTHONY DAVID and Grammy-nominated songstress EMILY KING. Anthony David's latest album, Acey Duecy -- released earlier this year on India.Arie's Soul Bird Music label-- was lauded by fans and critics alike, but David may have received his greatest props this week when future First Lady hopeful, Michelle Obama, cited him as on of her current favorite artists in an interview with Marie Claire. Joining on David on November 5th is fast-rising singer/songwriter EMILY KING, who had had a stellar 2007, earning a Grammy nomination for "Best Contemporary R&B Album" for her debut effort East Side Story (J Records).

Anthony David is half bluesman, half soul singer, but he was actually raised on hip-hop. After serving with the 82nd Airborne, the Desert Storm veteran picked up the guitar for the first time at age twenty-one, when he landed in Atlanta following his military stint. At the same time, he met Grammy-winning artist India.Arie, who has become a friend and a musical cohort. After her Acoustic Soul album -- which includes "A Part of My Life," written by David -- went double platinum and garnered seven Grammy nominations, he followed her on tour, released two independent albums of his own, and then became the first artist signed to Arie's new label, Soulbird.

Excerpt from Marie Claire Interview with Michelle Obama: MC: So, what’s on your iPod? MO: I have a pretty eclectic mix of everything, from Beyoncé to Stevie Wonder. He’s my favorite artist of all time, so I probably have every song he’s ever recorded. But if I hear something I like somewhere, I’ll add it. I just heard this CD by Anthony David, who’s an R&B guy — I put him on there. That’s brand new, so I’m kind of enjoying that a lot now.

On Wednesday, November 5th, Anthony David, a true Neo-Soul talent, brings the works of his new album Acey Duecy to the S.O.B.'s stage. With a spectacular special guest like Emily King, the night promises to be one to remember for all R&B and soul music fans.
