The unprecedented trek will bring her powerhouse vocals across the continent, offering fans a chance to experience elements from her critically-acclaimed Coachella performances which were heralded as “one of the greatest moments in Coachella’s 17-year history” by Yahoo! Music. “Her set was freakin’ legendary…will blow your mind,” stated Buzzfeed and Time Magazine anointed her performance as “one of the festival’s best.”

Sia released her new album, “This Is Acting,” (Monkey Puzzle Records/RCA Records) earlier this year to much critical acclaim. The New Yorker described it as “the Platonic ideal of a modern pop album,” with rave reviews across the board from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, The Fader, and many more. The album debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 Chart, peaked at number one on the ITunes chart in over 50 countries, and charted Top 10 in eight countries worldwide, including number one in her native Australia and number three in the UK. Currently, Sia’s single, “Cheap Thrills,” is Top Five on Spotify globally and is number one on Shazam’s Global Chart for three consecutive weeks.

Grammy Award-winning recording artist, producer and songwriter Miguel first hit the mainstream in 2010 with his infectious first single, “All I Want Is You,” and “Sure Thing,” which hit number one on Billboard’s Hip-Hop/R&B chart. His critically-acclaimed, four-time Grammy Award-nominated sophomore album “Kaleidoscope Dream,” featured the intoxicating, “How Many Drinks?,” as well as his third U.S. number one hit single, “Adorn,” which garnered Miguel his first Grammy Award for Best R&B Song and resided at number one on the R&B/Hip-Hip Airplay chart for more than 23 weeks, becoming the longest-running number one in the history of the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hip Airplay chart.  Miguel’s critically-acclaimed third studio album, “Wildheart,” released in 2015, claimed the number one spot on Billboard’s R&B Albums chart for the second time and debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 Album Chart. The album was recently nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Urban Contemporary Album category, and its lead single, “Coffee,” was nominated in the Best R&B Song category.

AlunaGeorge, which is singer/lyricist Aluna Francis and producer George Reid, have barely stopped since they released their 2012 single, “You Know You Like It,” followed by their critically-lauded debut album, “Body Music” in 2013. Last year, DJ Snake’s remix, “You Know You Like It,” became one of the most streamed songs of all time crossing double-platinum in sales with over 85 million YouTube views. The London duo is confirmed to perform at a number of festivals this season including Lollapalooza, HARD Summer, Glastonbury and more. Earlier this year, they released the first single, “I’m In Control,” featuring Jamaican dancehall artist Popcaan, from the band’s forthcoming sophomore studio album titled, “I Remember,” to be released this fall via Interscope Records.

Tickets on sale Friday, June 12, 2015

After completing an impressive first leg of his Viaje (Journey) Tour, including 15 different countries with an estimated attendance of over one million, Ricardo Arjona is set to embark on part two of his Viaje (Journey) U.S. Tour. In March, the Viaje Tour earned the number one spot on Billboard Magazine’s Top Tours list with 14 shows in 13 American cities, selling over 84,000 seats. Arjona will join concert producer Felix Cabrera for 12 additional dates—two in the Dominican Republic and 10 in cities across the United States and Puerto Rico. The tour kicks off on August 7 and concludes on September 20 in Orlando at the Amway Center. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 12 at 10 a.m.

With a musical career spanning three decades, Arjona reigns over the Latin musical landscape delivering over 40 hit songs and becoming the artist that appeals to the largest audience in Latin America. The global superstar has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide and has received more than 650 award nominations.

As with his previous tour, Metamorfosis, Viaje was created in its entirety by the singer-songwriter. The creative concept fuses traditional theater with state-of-the-art technology and takes the audience through a magnificent visual and sonic journey. Throughout the show, fans will enjoy varying seasonal changes through sets designed to create rain, snow, outstanding scenery and stunning lighting effects.

Fans will experience a stage production unlike anything seen before in any Latin American show; asserting once again that Arjona is one of the the most revered and successful Latin musical sensations in recent years. Viaje has one of the largest stages in Latin America, set at over 65 feet tall and the stage illuminates as an old train station filled with banks, suitcases and theatrically-mounted on two floors. The lights perfectly synchronized with magnificent scenes projected on giant video screens give each song a dramatic and unique setting. Viaje perfectly blends intimate moments, while setting the tone with his guitar in hand, low lights and performing his classics. For two hours, concertgoers will be taken on a journey and experience why Arjona remains one of the most important Latin artist’s of all time.

“Being in concert with Marc brings the music experience to a whole different level. The exchange of energy gives audiences a sense of intimacy and singing with Marc is always a fun and endearing experience,” said Carlos Vives.

Anthony is one of the most influential artists of his time and a true ambassador of Latin music and culture. He has sold over 12 million albums worldwide and has been recognized with countless standard gold and platinum certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).  In 2012, the six-time Grammy and Latin Grammy Award-winner launched the Maestro Cares Foundation, hosting a series of fundraisers throughout the year to benefit the non-profit organization and build orphanages in Latin America. His latest album, titled “Marc Anthony 3.0,” released July 23, 2013, received an American Music Award; a Grammy Award nomination; five Premios Lo Nuestro; two Premios Juventud; ten Billboard Latin Music Awards; three Billboard Awards; and a special recognition from the Univisión television network.

In addition to his music and the highly credible acting résumé he has established, Anthony also has his own clothing and accessories line for Kohl’s and he is a minority owner of the Miami Dolphins.

Singer, composer, actor, businessman and Ambassador to UNICEF and USAID, Vives is one of Colombia’s most iconic artists and Latin music’s most important figures. With more than 30 million albums sold worldwide, he is considered a pioneer of Colombian pop music, trailblazing a path for international success by many other artists over the last decades. He was the first Colombian artist to ever win a Grammy Award and to date has won two Grammys and nine Latin Grammys. After a lengthy absence from the international music scene, Vives returned three years ago with two critically acclaimed and chart-topping albums, “Corazon Profundo” and “Mas + Corazon Profundo,” which have spawned five number one Billboard Latin song hits, including “Cuando Nos Volvamos Encontrar,” feating Marc Anthony, “Bailar Contigo,” “El Mar De Sus Ojos” and “Volvi a Nacer,” which became an anthem throughout Latin America and dominating radio charts in Mexico, Venezuela, Chile, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Central America and Colombia .

NKOTB surprised viewers with a special reveal of TLC and a personal message from Nelly (currently overseas with the armed forces). The groups hinted at possible collaborations and other exciting possibilities while on the road this summer, sending fans into a frenzy across social media.

The morning TV whirlwind was followed up with an NKOTB/TLC media blitz. The groups shut down Chase Plaza at Madison Square Garden for a press conference filled with media and ecstatic fans, talking with outlets like “Access Hollywood,” “E!,” “Entertainment Tonight,” “EXTRA,” Associated Press and BuzzFeed. Social media has been abuzz ever since the official reveal with no signs of slowing down.

A Morning At Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus Xtreme

Circus Xtreme Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Amway Center Reading with Ringling

David Caran joins us to share his experience at Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Present Circus Xtreme at the Amway Center.

Once again it was time for the Greatest Show on Earth to come back to the Amway Center.  I remember see Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus when I was a kid, and I always love reconnecting with that part of my childhood.  Although many elements remind me of the circuses I used to go to, this is was not the same. 

Circus Xtreme Curtain

Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey definitely brought it to a new level with their Circus Xtreme.  With updated technology and special effects they have taken many classic circus acts and reinvented them for the next generations.

Circus Xtreme High Wire

It was hard to narrow down my favorite part, but it has to be the high flying acts.  The skill and precision needed to perform on a high wire or trapeze amazes me today every bit as much as they did when I was eight. 

Circus Xtreme High Wire Jumping Rope

It’s hard not to get excited going to the circus with the exotic animals, the crazy clowns, the amazing acrobats, and who doesn’t love someone getting shot out of a cannon.

Circus Xtreme Opening

The Circus Xtreme show runs about 2 hours with a 15 minute intermission, and the flow of the show is very good.  They do a great job of adding spectacle, great production value, and fun in-between acts which helps hold the interest of the younger viewers. 

Circus Xtreme Cannon

And if all that fails, you can always get a snow cone or a variety of souvenirs that are sold outside.  I know that always takes care of my little one.

Circus Xtreme Snowcone

One piece of advice that I can give to parents is that there are often protestors outside the circus who are very vocal about their feeling of the circus.  They are generally peaceful, but carry signs depicting the abuse of animals and are very vocal about their protest of the circus.  It is something that you should be aware of in case you need to explain things to your children as you make your way to the venue.

Circus Xtreme Performers

Overall there is not a much more perfect family experience than going to the circus.  It’s exciting, it’s fun, and it’s always full of surprises.  Definitely check out the new Circus Xtreme from Ringling Brothers the next time the come through your town.  It will definitely be a great experience for young and old alike.

John currently has two albums entering the Billboard Hot 100, his latest studio album, “The Diving Board,” and features 12 new songs written by John and his longtime lyricist, Bernie Taupin. The album returns John to the piano, bass and drums lineup that marked the artist’s introduction to worldwide audiences more than 40 years ago. As he explains, “I’m incredibly excited about every aspect of this album: the performances, T Bone Burnett’s production, Bernie’s lyrics and the songs we’ve created. “The Diving Board” is the album I’ve been waiting to make for decades.”

John is winner of six Grammy Awards, five BRIT (British Record Industry Trust) awards and is one of the top-selling solo artists of all time, with 35 gold and 25 platinum albums, 29 consecutive Top 40 hits, and has sold more than 250 million records worldwide.
