Motown legend Smokey Robinson is bringing his Legacy Tour to Caesars Windsor this spring.
He will take the Colosseum stage on Thursday, March 27 at 8 p.m.
The singer-songwriter is recognized for over four decades of hits. He has received numerous awards, including the “Grammy Living Legend Award,” “NARAS Lifetime Achievement Award,” and the “National Medal of Arts Award” from the President of the United States. Robinson has also been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Robinson, born and raised in Detroit, founded The Miracles, Berry Gordy’s first vocal group, sparking the beginning of the iconic Motown record label and dynasty. The Miracles’ single "Shop Around" became Motown's first Number One hit on the R&B Singles chart.
In the years following, Robinson wrote hits for the group including "You've Really Got a Hold on Me," "Ooo Baby Baby," "The Tracks of My Tears," "Going to a Go-Go," "More Love," "Tears of a Clown," and "I Second That Emotion."
Robinson also wrote and produced hits for Motown greats including The Temptations, Mary Wells, Brenda Holloway, and Marvin Gaye. Robinson later turned to a solo career where he continued his tradition of chart-topping hits with "Just to See Her," "Quiet Storm," "Cruisin'," and "Being with You."
In 2023, Robinson released his newest album of original music entitled Gasms.
2025 will mark the 50th anniversary of his 1975 breakthrough album, A Quiet Storm. The Smokey Legacy Tour will highlight this anniversary as well as celebrate all of his top hits throughout the decades.
