Four time Grammy award winning artist India.Arie will perform at the 32nd Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday luncheon on Monday at the Lansing Center.  There are still a few tickets available.

Arie has been playing before audiences worldwide since her 2001 debut "Acoustic Soul," often blending more exotic styles with her neo- soul sound.
