Bobby Brooks as Jackie Wilson

  • Jackie Wilson

  • Bobby Brooks

  • Atlantic City

It has been said of Bobby Brooks, "To take music from him, is to expel his soul from his earthly frame, for it is a vital function for this song and dance performer." Watching this dynamic entertainer is sheer delight, as Bobby energizes every moment onstage. His creativity and high-energy performance in the award-winning live tribute show Legends In Concert is magnificent as he glides easily through his five-octave range in an outstanding tribute to Jackie Wilson. Moving through Wilson favorites like "Lonely Teardrops", "Baby, Workout," and "To Be Loved", he takes the audience "Higher and Higher" through his joyous celebration of the legendary super Rhythm and Blues star.

Although a native of South Carolina, and retired Navy Veteran, Bobby considers Hawaii (where he worked with Waikiki's most foremost 1950's act "The Love Notes") home. He also toured with his own one-man show internationally, including Australia where he met soulful Michael Bolton. Bolton was equally impressed with Bobby, saying, "Your look and sound of Jackie Wilson is hypnotic."

A virtuoso musician and singer, Bobby plays both guitar and piano. He studied Media Production and Electronic Systems at U.S.C. before he began his career as a performer. Bobby is a recognized songwriter whose original songs are used by Columbia Records to promote new artists.

Legends In Concert producers first spotted Bobby in a Doo-Woop show. He was encouraged by friend Paul Revere of "Paul Revere and the Raiders" to portray Stevie Wonder. Since then, he has added Little Richard, Ray Charles, Neal McCoy, Otis Redding and Johnny Mathis to his repertoire.

Audiences and critics alike laud Bobby's talent and showmanship. You can bet that whatever Bobby does, he puts his "art and soul" into it.
