SUMMARY:Sixpence None the Richer
DESCRIPTION:Sixpence None the Richer began taking shape in New Braunfels\, Texas in the early ‘90s\, when guitarist Matt Slocum met vocalist Leigh Nash at a church retreat. The group recorded a demo before eventually signing with R.E.X. Records. Their debut LP\, The Fatherless & the Widow\, appeared in 1993 and their sophomore effort\, 1995’s This Beautiful Mess won a Dove Award and was followed by the Tickets for a Prayer Wheel EP. \nIn 1997\, Sixpence None the Richer released their self-titled album and two years later exploded globally when the track “Kiss Me”\, from that album\, was released as a single. The song has been featured in countless movies and TV shows and catapulted Sixpence None the Richer’s starpower into the mainstream\, earning airplay in more than ten different countries. \nAccolades continued as the band’s rendition of the La’s “There She Goes” also became a major hit. In fall 2002\, Sixpence None the Richer returned to form with Divine Discontent. The band’s cover of the Crowded House classic “Don’t Dream It’s Over” pushed Sixpence None the Richer’s name back into the charts in early 2003. Although the group quietly disbanded in 2004\, they remained active as individuals and continued to release music periodically\, including the albums Dawn of Grace and Lost in Transition. \nFast forward to 2024 and all-original members (Leigh Nash\, Matt Slocum\, Dale Baker\, and Justin Cary) have reunited and are writing and recording new music and preparing for a world tour. As a taste of the new music\, you can hear “The Tide” released in late 2023 as Leigh Nash + Sixpence None The Richer\, which has already amassed over 2 Million views and streams across platforms. Curb Records is also celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the band’s self-titled (Kiss Me) album by re-releasing it in a collectible vinyl series that also features the new track\, “The Tide”. \nSixpence None The Richer has helped shape the musical landscape across generations and are gearing up for an exciting road ahead. \n\n\n\n \n\nMcKenna Esteb\nMcKenna grew up in Snoqualmie WA\, where her love for music began\, performing in talent shows\, at coffee shops and restaurant around the greater Seattle area. Throughout her career she has called both Austin\, TX and Boise\, ID (where she currently resides) home. \nHer vocal style is heavily influenced by the likes of Aretha Franklin\, Etta James and Amy Winehouse. The roots of her music have soul and funk influences mixed into a nice cocktail of pop/modern rock. With songs ranging from “cry in the bathtub w/ a pint of Ben & Jerry’s” to “10 lb’s of sass in a 5 lb bag” she is guaranteed to keep her music vulnerable\, fun & keep you on your toes.

SUMMARY:Gregorian - Pure Chants World Tour
DESCRIPTION:For almost 25 years\, GREGORIAN have thrilled millions of people worldwide with their choreographed shows and their ability to switch seamlessly from classical chorales to pop and rock songs. Their concerts have set new standards. With over 2\,000 shows in 35 countries and more than 10 million albums sold\, GREGORIAN are the most successful choir in the world. In November and December 2024\, GREGORIAN will continue with their PURE CHANTS World Tour in Canada and in the USA. Frank Peterson\, the creator and producer of GREGORIAN says: “Our Pure Chants concerts bring the most popular GREGORIAN classics in an atmospheric and tranquil sound environment. Pure Chants concerts are extremely peaceful\, yet spectacular and unite the audience with the most beautiful melodies in the world.” The idea for GREGORIAN was born when Frank Peterson visited the royal monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial in Spain in 1989. Wandering through the medieval monastery and castle complex and listening to contemporary music on his Walkman\, he found the inspiration for the sound experiment of mixing ancient Gregorian music with modern music. Peterson first realized his idea with Michael Cretu and the worldwide sound phenomenon “Enigma”. Their first album “MCMXC a.D.” was released in 1990 and quickly became a worldwide success. “MCMXC a.D.” was number 1 in 41 different countries and went 57 times platinum and 45 times gold. It is considered as the most successful German album of all time worldwide. \nThis gigantic success paved the way for GREGORIAN to take the musical idea one step further and to establish it as an independent music act. In 1999\, with the start of production on the first album “Masters Of Chant”\, Frank Peterson seamlessly built on the success of “Enigma”. In the following years\, GREGORIAN has sold over 10 million CDs and 7 DVDs worldwide and achieved gold and platinum status in 24 different countries. At the end of 2024 and thus in time for their Anniversary World Tourin 2025\, Frank Peterson will release a new GREGORIAN album. The album will include new songs as well as re-recordings of some wellknown GREGORIAN classics. Frank Peterson has been involved in various musical projects and international productions for over 30 years. He has worked as a producer with Sarah Brightman\, Enigma\, Justin Timberlake\, Andrea Bocelli\, Paul Stanley (Kiss)\, Backstreet Boys\, Alannah Myles\, José Carreras\, Tom Jones\, Plácido Domingo\, Errol Brown\, Ofra Haza\, Sandra\, Josh Groban\, Marky Mark\, I Muvrini\, Florent Pagny and Ricardo Cocciante\, among others. In addition to GREGORIAN\, Peterson has also been working as a show producer for Sarah Brightman and other top stars since 2005. Together with the world star\, he produced the album and cinema production “Sarah Brightman – Hymn”\, which was acclaimed by critics worldwide.
