From the moment the lights softened and Batiste emerged in a warm amber glow, the atmosphere shifted into one of expectation and wonder
People danced in their seats, some clapped to Batiste's melodic voice, some with eyes closed during the hard-hitting renditions
The night stretched across the full spectrum of his career with moments from his recently released album 'Big Money' along with tunes from World Music Radio, Beethoven Blues and more
He even made the crowd tap their feet to his version of the classic ‘You Are My Sunshine’ and his Grammy-nominated ‘FREEDOM’
