Bob Lappin and The Palm Beach Pops welcome to their stage superstar Vegas entertainer Clint Holmes for "An Evening with Clint Holmes," a six-night engagement in South Florida on February 8-12 and 14, 2010. When Clint is on stage, anything can happen, and usually does!
Each night Clint redefines the role of entertainer as he weaves the audience through a musical journey of Jazz, Broadway and treasures from the American Songbook. After seeing Clint Holmes’ multifaceted performance numerous times, Maestro Bob Lappin worked diligently to bring Clint to perform with him and The Palm Beach Pops for an unforgettable concert. Maestro Lappin praises Clint Holmes as, “One of the biggest talents I’ve ever seen!” Clint is famous for making every performance an original and captivating audiences with his signature style.
Clint, best known for his silky vocal stylings, has also honed his many other talents, which include dancing and a warm comedic touch. Clint headlined at Harrah's in Vegas for seven years where he was also voted Singer of the Year twice. With his powerful voice and magnetic stage presence, Clint was crowned Atlantic City Entertainer of the Year three times!

ABOUT CLINT HOLMES
For a seven year run as headliner at Harrah's in Las Vegas, Harrah’s named their main showroom the Clint Holmes Theater, a rare honor received only by a handful of entertainers in Las Vegas history. Clint was Harrah’s “Entertainer of Choice for the Millennium” and was voted “Singer of the Year” twice by the readers of the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Clint was recently inducted into the Nevada Entertainment Artist Hall of Fame along with other greats Tony Curtis, Phyllis McGuire, Wayne Newton, Rich Little and Robert Goulet.
Crowned “Atlantic City Entertainer of the Year” three times, he starred in Clint Holmes’ Sophisticated Rhythms, a dynamic stage show of music from the 1940s through the present. He released a DVD of his live performance at Harrah’s, “Clint Holmes: A Night to Remember” and in 2006, his PBS special of his Las Vegas Act was aired nationwide. Clint has three CDs available, including his most recent release, “Simple Song.”
Casual elegance describes Clint’s presence on stage. He has a magical way of filling a room with a warm, comfortable sound. Holmes comes by his tremendous talent naturally. His father is an African-American jazz musician and his mother is a classically trained Opera singer from Great Britain. Clint admits it was the best of two musical worlds, “My mom taught me how to sing correctly, and my dad taught me how to enjoy it.”
Most recently, Clint performed the theme song for the award-winning documentary, “Who Will Stand,” an eye opening, heart wrenching and inspirational look at life in the military, which premiered in November 2009. In addition to hosting his own Emmy Award-winning talk/variety show, “New York at Night,” Clint had a Top Ten smash hit with “Playground In My Mind (My Name is Michael).” Targeted for Broadway, Clint has written and stars in his highly acclaimed autobiographical musical, “Just Another Man” and recently appeared at Carnegie Hall with The New York Pops.
