Legendary soulman Geno Washington returns to the stage with his long-standing band The Yo-Yos for a night steeped in classic rhythm and blues energy. Known for his electrifying live presence since the 1960s, Washington built his reputation on high-octane performances that blend soul, R&B and a touch of rock ’n’ roll attitude — and decades on, that spirit remains very much alive.
This show promises a lively mix of vintage soul standards, crowd-pleasing favourites and spontaneous moments that come from a band deeply rooted in live performance. Expect powerful vocals, tight musicianship and an infectious sense of fun, with Washington’s charismatic delivery driving the night forward. There’s a timeless quality to the sound — the kind that gets audiences moving, clapping and fully involved from the first note.
Set within the intimate surroundings of Ropetackle Arts Centre, the evening offers a chance to see a true veteran of the genre up close, delivering a performance that celebrates both musical heritage and the enduring joy of live soul music.
