Sade brings her 2011 Tour and John Legend to South Florida!

After a decade out of the limelight, the 51-year-old contemporary singer Sade Adu and her eponymous backing band reemerged earlier this year with the chart-topping release "Soldier of Love." And now Sade’s first tour in ten years promises to be a big one.

Launching in early summer 2011, the venture will eventually expand to 50 dates across North America. But at the moment, only 10 concerts have been revealed, beginning with a June 16 show at 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore, MD.

Other highlights on the current itinerary include stops on June 24 at the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, NJ; July 6 at TD Garden in Boston, MA; and August 5 at United Center in Chicago, IL. North of the border, only two planned performances have been announced: June 28 at Air Canada Centre in Toronto, ON, and June 30 at Bell Centre in Montreal, QC.

Concert dates are confirmed through an August 30 concert at the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA. In the coming weeks, more show announcements have been promised for more than two dozen markets, including Atlanta, GA; Dallas, TX; Las Vegas, NV; New Orleans, LA; Pittsburgh, PA; and Vancouver, BC… and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Sade last toured in 2001 for the LOVERS LIVE Tour, playing to more than 1 million fans during that run, according to a press statement for the group. That trek followed 2000's "Lovers Rock," the fifth studio album for Sade, which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200.

Joining Sade on the tour will be John Legend, who most recently released "Wake Up!," a collaborative collection with hip hop outfit The Roots. His self-produced album, which mostly covers '60s and '70s soul music, debuted at No. 8 on The Billboard 200.

Sade released "Soldier of Love" in February this year, and the record instantly rocketed to the top of the charts. By the first week of July, Billboard ranked it as the third best-selling album of 2010 (behind Lady Antebellum and Justin Bieber) with more than 1,200,000 units sold nationally.

There has been heavy promotion behind the new album, including a high-end music video for their first single "The Ballad of Mona Lisa," and a mini movie which features snippets from four songs off the upcoming new album. Both of the videos are riddled with innuendos towards the "old" Panic! At the Disco and Ryan Ross/Jon Walker's departure.

Roger Daltrey brings The Who’s TOMMY to South Florida!

The legendary frontman brings one of The Who’s legendary albums: TOMMY to the U.S. and Canada starting September 2011.

What’s different between Roger Daltrey's version of the tale depicting blind, deaf and dumb Tommy Walker and The Who’s 1989 tour featuring the 1969 album? As with the U.K. tour, the North American run is being described as the first start-to-finish performance of the rock opera. While The Who presented Tommy several times since the late 1960s, the band was known to leave out a song or two, most notably “Welcome” which was not included in the 1989 tour.

Daltrey and his band premiered their rendition of TOMMY at the March 25 Teenage Cancer Trust at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Since then, fans have been lusting for a full-blown TOMMY tour. For North American fans, this news was Christmas seven months early.

Daltrey also played the lead in the multi-award winning 1975 Ken Russell film adaptation of TOMMY, alongside: Ann-Margret, Jack Nicholson, Oliver Reed as well as Elton John, Eric Clapton, John Entwistle, Keith Moon and Tina Turner.

The AEG Live-produced tour launches at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida on September 13 and wraps in Winnipeg, Manitoba at the MTS Centre November 2. Stops in between include Boston at the Agganis Arena September 17; Philadelphia at the Mann Center September 21; Uniondale, NY, at Nassau Coliseum September 23; Montreal at Place Des Arts September 27; Ottawa, Ontario, at Scotiabank Place September 28 and Toronto at Sony Centre For The Performing Arts September 30.

Who has the chops to back Daltrey in this TOMMY undertaking? That would be guitarist Frank Simes, drummer Scott Deavours, bassist Jon Button and keyboardist Loren Gold. Also backing Daltrey on guitar will be Pete Townshend’s brother Simon, who has also played with The Who on the band’s recent tours.

“TOMMY, an album that tells a story about a ‘deaf, dumb and blind boy’ who becomes the leader of a messianic movement, will always be seen as a turning point for the band,” Daltrey said. “Within it, I found the new voice of The Who and the band found its stride in making that music, adjusting it, using all that knowledge that we had from jazz and the blues into making it work in a rock way.”

Roger Daltrey performs The Who’s TOMMY will be at the Seminole Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida on Tuesday September 13, 2011.

Luis Miguel brings his 2011 World Tour to South Florida!

He is one of Mexico's biggest stars, with a twenty-five year career that has spanned the globe. Along the way, he has picked up more Grammys, Platinum discs and other accolades, than any other Latin singer before him. He was also the first Latin artist to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Luis Miguel is in the middle of a 161 day tour which started at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas and will end in Puerto Rico. The schedule takes him to seven countries, usually playing at the biggest venues possible, in a bid to accomodate armies of fans. They will, no doubt, be more than thrilled to see him especially after a mystery health scare saw him hospitalized in Los Angeles recently.

The singer was actually born in Puerto Rico to Spanish and Italian parents, but his family moved to Mexico when he was an infant. He has lived in Mexico ever since.

His first album was released when he was just eleven years old, after he was snapped up by EMI Records. By the time he was fifteen, he was winning awards for his duet with Scottish singer, Sheena Easton. That was merely the beginning of a glittering career, which is still going strong.

He may be one of Mexico's favorite sons, but his appeal is international -- Saddam Hussein purportedly has Luis Miguel's 'Segundo Romance' album in his possession, when the dictator was captured by Western forces.

Luis Miguel will be at the American Airlines Arena in downtown Miami, Florida on Thursday May 19 and Saturday May 21, 2011.

Disney’s PHINEAS AND FERB: Live! on Tour heads to South Florida!

There’s 104 days of summer vacation and this year, Phineas and Ferb will be taking advantage of every single one as they tour the country in their very own stage show, produced by Feld Entertainment, who produce other Disney Live! productions including the Disney on Ice shows.

Produced by Feld Entertainment, Disney’s PHINEAS AND FERB: The Best LIVE Tour Ever!, brings Phineas, Ferb, Candace, Isabella, Baljeet, Buford and friends to the stage as they make the most of the last day of summer by building an invention bigger, better and more amazing than ever. Before anyone can wonder “Hey! Where’s Perry?,” the pet platypus dons his Agent P fedora, and hilarious hijinks unfold as he battles Dr. Doofenshmirtz to save the Danville Tri-state area and audiences everywhere from the evil scientist’s most havoc-wreaking scheme to date.

“Disney Channel has created an extraordinarily popular TV series that offers humor for multiple generations and I am thrilled that Feld Entertainment is bringing Disney’s PHINEAS AND FERB to the stage for the very first time,” said Producer Alana Feld. “The dynamic characters, witty humor and inspired music from the television series set the perfect foundation for Disney’s PHINEAS AND FERB: The Best LIVE Tour Ever! to create an unparalleled Phineas and Ferb experience for audiences.

“We are filled with a great sense of pride over this upcoming live tour and are especially thrilled with the achievements of the Feld creative team which has produced a smart, interesting and funny stage show, that extends the characters, stories and comedy that are at the heart of what we do every day,” said PHINEAS AND FERB co-creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff “Swampy” Marsh.

Audiences will be whisked on a high-energy ride that is part action adventure and part rock concert, while they move it and shake it to a soundtrack of hit songs from the animated series, including “Gitchee Gitchee Goo,” “Squirrels in My Pants,” “Backyard Beach,” “Busted,” “Today is Gonna Be a Great Day,” and “Summer Belongs to You.” Familiar songs serve as a main ingredient in the plot, advancing the story from scene to scene, while taking on a whole new feel when fused with fresh, original choreography and inventive special effects.

To bring PHINEAS AND FERB from screen to stage, Producer Alana Feld assembled a creative team whose sense of humor, understanding of a live audience and ability to incorporate the essence of the characters seamlessly brings the show to life.

Disney's PHINEAS AND FERB: Live! on Tour will be at the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise/Fort Lauderdale, Florida on Friday March 2, 2012.

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr. bring their 42nd Anniversary Tour to South Florida!

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr. have enjoyed tremendous success through the years as recording artists, performers and authors. They have received seven Grammy Awards and earned 15 gold and three platinum records and enjoyed starring roles on television and stage. They have performed to sold-out concerts around the world.

As lead vocalists of The 5th Dimension, one of the top singing groups of the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, McCoo and Davis recorded such classics as “Up, Up & Away,” “Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In,” “Wedding Bell Blues,” “One Less Bell to Answer,” “Stoned Soul Picnic” and other chart toppers.

After more than a decade with The 5th Dimension, they decided to leave the group and establish themselves as a duo. They had immediate success with the #1 single, “You Don’t Have to be a Star (to be in My Show)” that earned them a Grammy for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group.

That success piqued network interest and CBS-TV premiered The Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis, Jr. Show as a prime-time summer series in 1977. Entering the ‘80s as an international success, they headlined in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Atlantic City, played to SRO crowds in concerts across the country and won the prestigious Grand Prize at the international Tokyo Music Festival.

In addition to the success they’ve had together, McCoo and Davis have also enjoyed solo pursuits. McCoo hosted the popular 1980s television music series Solid Gold for five years and Davis had the chance to realize a lifelong dream to record a religious album with gospel great, the Rev. James Cleveland, entitled, “Let Me Have a Dream.” He also began to explore theatrical opportunities, starring in the hit musical BLUES IN THE NIGHT at the prestigious Old Globe Theatre and in the role of James “Thunder” Early in a regional production of DREAMGIRLS.

The duo were invited to perform for the Pontiff during the 1987 U.S. visit of Pope John Paul II, and have participated in inaugural celebrations for presidents of the United States. In the early ‘90s, McCoo and Davis joined the original members of The 5th Dimension for a special reunion tour, and in August, 1991, the group was honored with a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

In 2004, the couple wrote a book which shares their secrets of staying happy and committed to each other in Hollywood entitled “Up, Up and Away…How We Found Love, Faith and Marriage in the Entertainment World.”

McCoo and Davis recently released the CD, “The Many Faces of Love”, a collection of love songs and hits from the ‘60s and ‘70s written by the top songwriters of the period: Bacharach & David, Michel LeGrand and Marilyn & Alan Bergman, Ashford & Simpson and Holland, Dozier & Holland, to name a few. The CD’s unique interactive features include videos, interviews, rare photos and more.

Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis, Jr. will be at the Seminole Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida on Thursday May 26, 2011.
