Show: Serena Henry at the Vegas Room
Have you ever gone to a concert and been blown away by the backup singers? Serena Henry has been supporting performances (and stealing the spotlight) from headliners like Gladys Knight, Smokey Robinson and Donny & Marie for years on the Strip and on national tours, and she has recently performed with Vegas acts like Clint Holmes and David Perrico’s Pop Strings Orchestra. Henry takes over the Vegas Room January 28-30, singing some of her personal favorites from a range of artists like The Beatles, Roberta Flack and Justin Timberlake.

The sensation of sitting in a lounge and listening to live music. The singer’s charismatic banter, and the energy that builds as the band plays off the crowd. Throughout the pandemic, Las Vegans have seriously missed live music, but David Perrico has a one-night remedy. The Las Vegas-based composer will bring his Pop Strings Orchestra into living rooms around the world for on Friday, January 22.
Perrico’s two-hour show, available as a $24 livestream, will features favorites from his orchestra’s Strip residency a longtime favorite at Cleopatra’s Barge inside Caesars Palace plus new songs the group has been working on throughout the shutdown.
