To close out our 2024 Hometown Sound Music Series, Hendersonville Theatre presents a special concert, BonaFide, featuring Paula Harris. BonaFide lives up to its name, delivering an authentic and soulful blend of Funk, Blues, and Soul that’s as genuine as it gets. As Rootstime Magazine in Belgium puts it, BonaFide “combines the passion and conviction of blues with the sophistication and complexity of jazz.” Their music is a groove-driven, funky, and delicious mix of original material and creatively reimagined classic soul and funk covers.

The powerhouse group is led by award-winning vocalist Paula Harris and acclaimed bassist Mike Frost, both of whom bring their diverse musical backgrounds to the forefront. What makes BonaFide truly special is that every member is a band leader in their own right: Paula Harris (Vocals) from Northern California, Mike Frost (Bass) from New York, Iliana Rose (Keys & Vocals) from Los Angeles, and Mike Gibilisco (Sax & Vocals) from Tampa. Together, they create a world-class sound that’s fresh, vibrant, and undeniably original.
