Jeffrey Osborne is considered one of the most distinctive voices in soul music. With the legendary R & B group, L.T.D., Osborne was originally brought on as the drummer and eventually became the lead vocalist.  After more than ten years with the band, he decided to pursue a solo career, which produced such Top 40 hits as " Really Don't Need No Light", Don't You Get So Mad", Osborne's solo career has brought him four Grammy nominations,  five gold and platinum albums, including his debut self entitled album " Jeffrey Osborne", "Stay with Me Tonight" and "Only Human".He scored an international hit with "On the Wings of Love" in 1982. After his six albums released on A&M during the '80s, he moved to Arista for Only Human (1990), then switched to a series of independent labels. His releases during the 2000s included " That's for Sure" (2000) and "Music Is Life" (2003), as well as cover albums " From the Soul "(2005) and "A Time for Love" (2013). His latest project entitled "Worth It All" is being released in January 2018 on Mack Avenue Records. This project was written and produced by Jeffrey Osborne, with the exception of one song entitled " Work It" which was co-written with his son Jeffrey Osborne Jr. who also performed on the track with him. This project, inspired by the late great George Duke has taken Osborne back to his deep R&B. Don't miss this rare Pittsburgh appearance.
