Will Downing Ready to Tour with Holiday Show

Singer Will Downing is joining the Smooth Christmas tour that also features Lalah Hathaway and saxophonist Gerald Albright. The vocalist is looking forward to performing holiday material as well as tunes from his hit 2007 CD release After Tonight.

This year Downing concentrated on getting back into live performing after battling back from the degenerative muscle disease polymyositis. He made a triumphant return to the stage with a series of shows this past summer, and the Christmas shows will be his next concert trek.

Asked about balancing his health with his career, Downing told us: "You know what? I take it day by day. You know the phone is ringing consistently for folks to book me to come out and do whatever I do. That's good, but I'm trying to do a good balancing act now. I take a little work, do a little play. I do what I can do. I don't over-extend myself. "
