Guitarist, vocalist and songwriter George Benson will perform at Rivers Casino on Thursday, Aug. 11, at 8 p.m.
A 10-time Grammy-winning performer who has dabbled in pop, rock, funk and disco, Benson has recorded 36 studio albums during a career that has lasted over six decades. His discography includes 1980’s Give Me the Night and 1976’s Breezin’, which was certified triple platinum and earned him multiple Grammy Award nominations.
