Tony Award-winner Billy Porter celebrates his return to the cast of Broadway’s Kinky Boots with a new music video for “Not My Father’s Son,” conceived and directed by the show’s composer, Cyndi Lauper.
Lauper re-imagined the song, producing and arranging a new, acoustic version of the track that Porter sings with fellow original cast member Stark Sands.
“I wanted to tell the story of two totally different men, from different walks of life, that come together to realize that it’s our differences that should bring us together,” Lauper said. “That’s inspiring. And I think we could all use some of that these days. It’s also a great way to welcome Billy and Stark back to Broadway.”
Porter, whose recent studio album: Billy Porter Presents The Soul of Richard Rodgers debuted at #2 on the iTunes R&B charts, and Sands are performing in Kinky Boots through 1/7.
