Renowned R&B musician Ron Paris celebrated his 82nd birthday by belting songs from the patio of Soul Bites and sharing some personal stories and mementos for Black History Month. With his quintessential high energy and high style (sequins, faux fur, and embroidered denim completed his birthday look), Paris drew passersby to pause and listen while eyeing clippings from his life.
