Grammy winner Michael McDonald brings his instantly recognizable and smooth voice to the Lake Tahoe Music Festival’s final show.

McDonald performs at Northstar-At-Tahoe Resort Aug. 7 as part of the festival’s six-concert season taking place July 22–Aug. 7.

McDonald has been a fixture in American pop music for over three decades and continues to serenade fans with hits such as “I Keep Forgettin’,” Grammy-winning “Yah Mo B There” with James Ingram, and his No. 1 pop single “On My Own.” With past credits that include working side-by-side with Steely Dan, McDonald was also the voice of the Doobie Brothers, singing hits like “Takin’ In To The Streets,” “Minute By Minute,” and, the No. 1 single and Grammy-winning “What a Fool Believes.”

“Soul Speak,” McDonald’s latest album, is a compilation of his own interpretations of songs he loves and follows up on the exploration of Motown hits he recorded on the “Motown” and “Motown Two” albums. The song selections on “Soul Speak” range from the blue-eyed soul McDonald is known for with songs like “For Once in My Life,” “Walk on By” and “Love TKO” to more surprising selections including Van Morrison’s “Into the Mystic” and Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”

Tickets are $37 for general admission and $60 preferred/ They go on sale April 1.
