Live Music & More

Cory Phillips is unique natural: a sensual, soulful singer of rare touch, quality, wisdom, talent, range, and skill - with acoustic guitar prowess only rivaled by his memorable voice. His music aches with the rootsy vintage r&b of Stax and Motown and the hot southern soul of Nashville and Memphis, and elegantly pivots to classic country rock, 70s disco, and 80s pop seamlessly. His original solid gold classics are spun with gold and poetry throughout. His newest studio album, SEXTHIRSTYLOVEHUNGER, is a dirty bouquet of groove, funk, and soul that hit #28 on the Billboard’s New R&B Albums chart. An authentic and travelled musicman, he is simply the best male singer out on the road today. Cory tours tirelessly throughout the USA with over 200 shows a year. In 2026, he embarks on an extensive New England tour.
