Music is but one of Quentin Talley’s many talents. A modern creative renaissance man, Talley is an accomplished poet, actor, director and producer, not to mention one of Charlotte’s most prolific arts figures and advocates. Combining poetry with the jazzy and soulful backing sounds of The Soul Providers, Quentin Talley’s performances are always worthy of experiencing firsthand, particularly when the setting is NoDa’s indispensable Evening Muse. Doors open at 10 p.m.
