The event, set for April 21 at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver, benefits Seva Canada, a charitable organization that works to restore sight and prevent blindness in developing countries.

There will be 25 dynamic performers, accompanied by a 12-piece band, bringing the Motown songbook to life, the event website notes.

Wilson, a singer, actor and personal trainer, says that whenyou have a show packed with incredibly talented musicians playing nothing but Motown hits, you’re in for an incredible night.

“I always try to do something special every year and this year is no different. I’ve got some amazing dancers to work with and if everything goes well it will be the best yet,” he says.

Flandez, a Juno Award-nominated artist, has also performed at Motown Meltdown in the past.

“I’ll be singing an old Marvin Gaye classic that is not only groovy but also really fitting for the state of our world right now,” he notes.
