As we approach 2019, Artists across the globe are planning their U.S. Tours. Below is a list of 6 must see concert tours we think deserve some promotion.
Ariana Grande
Now known primarily as an ascending pop superstar, Ariana Grande first made a mark as an artist in several different mediums. Her debut starring role in 2008 was actually on stage, when she won a National Youth Theatre Association Award as a 15-year-old for 13, the only Broadway musical to ever feature a cast and band composed entirely of teenagers. In 2009, both she and her 13 co-star, Elizabeth Gillies, landed roles in the new Nickelodeon series Victorious, with Grande playing the character of Cat Valentine. Grande was considered the show’s breakout star, a belief affirmed at the show’s end in 2012 when she received a spin-off series with iCarly’s Jennette McCurdy. Sam and Cat aired through 2014.

The Rolling Stones
In the Spring of 1962, two childhood friends from Dartford, Kent, joined forces with a London bar band that was calling itself Blues Incorporated. Sharing a love of American blues musicians like Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf, as well as the more radio-friendly variations of the blues that formed the backbone of songs by artists like Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley, the newly formed combo soon took up residence at Richmond’s Crawdaddy Club where they became an immediate draw. By 1964, Decca Records released their first album—in part to capitalize on the worldwide popularity of the Beatles, a band that the label had foolishly passed on and still regretted as an epic mistake. The two childhood chums were Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, and the band they came to join—The Rolling Stones—is still going strong with new music and performances around the world.

Formed in 1970, Queen has long been considered one of the most important bands in all of rock history.

In 2018, Queen announced their 2019 North American tour, The Rhapsody Tour. Queen will be joined by Adam Lambert on vocals on this upcoming tour. This tour will pay tribute to former band member Freddie Mercury with band hits “Love Kills” and “I Was Born To Love You.” Whether you’ve seen this group live once or a hundred times, there’s always something new to experience at a Queen concert.
