Let’s Dance – Paul Roberts sings David Bowie will be held at Ce La Vi, Marina Bay Sands over three nights. Roberts, who fronted The Stranglers from 1990 to 2006, co-wrote their studio albums during that time and has since worked on several solo music projects, including singing Frank Sinatra alongside Laura Nixon’s Marilyn Monroe for British production house Alive & Swinging’s Marilyn Monroe tribute performances in 2010.
