In addition to his Gap Band hits, Wilson will also perform his acclaimed solo material from albums including 2005’s Charlie, Last Name Wilson, which hit the Top Ten thanks to the success of the title track and "Magic.”

An amazing combination of style, sophistication, sass and sex appeal, R&B supergroup En Vogue has sold over eight million albums. The group’s long line of hit singles include “Hold On,” “My Lovin (You’re Never Gonna Get It),” “Giving Him Something He Can Feel,” “Free Your Mind” and “Whatta Man” featuring Salt-N-Pepa. In 1993, En Vogue was named “Entertainer of the Year” at the Soul Train Music Awards and also won an American Music Award for “Best Soul Album of the Year.”
