Boney James at Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel

Leave the deadline on your desk. Take your date to the saxophone. Boney James returns to Sound Board at MotorCity Casino Hotel in Detroit on Friday, November 20, 2026, at 8:00 PM, giving couples and soulful-music lovers a concert worth dressing up for.

His sound puts warmth right at the center: flowing saxophone melody, soul in the phrasing, and the pleasure of following a tune without waiting for a singer to explain the feeling. That's the attraction of this night out. Sit with the person you came to enjoy, turn your attention toward the stage, and let the instrumental voice become the conversation you both came to hear.

Four Grammy nominations and twenty studio albums give longtime listeners a deep connection to bring through the doors. A Simple Man adds another chapter, with soulful melodies that keep the music personal. For a fan who knows that signature sound, this is a chance to see the artist behind it. For a couple choosing a different kind of Friday, the casino-hotel setting gives the evening a destination with a concert at its heart.

This Sound Board event is for guests 21 and older, with valid photo ID required. Choose your date, dress for your night out, and book Boney James tickets for an evening of soulful saxophone in Detroit.
