He first took to the stage in a shiny gold suit, like a millennial James Brown, to perform the track “Raindance,” off of his 2023 album “World Music Radio.” The audience of fans, largely Gen X folks and millennials , respectfully rushed to the front of the general admission area to get a closer look at the musician and dance.
