Today, 17-time Grammy Award winning artist Sting has added a new concert to his highly revered “STING 3.0” World Tour, presented by the Cherrytree Music Company and Live Nation, in Chicago, IL on Monday, November 24 at The Auditorium.
With virtuoso guitarist and longtime collaborator, Dominic Miller, and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), fans will have an opportunity to see Sting perform the most electrifying hits and rarities from his timeless discography. The "STING 3.0" North American tour has had several swift sellouts and kicked off to rave reviews:
“It was the kind of night - world-class performers, and performance, in an intimate space - that gets talked about for years.”- (Oakland Press)
“Sting blends charisma, intellect and sonic sophistication on this tour.” - (USA Today)
“[Sting’s] voice is as strong as ever, he’s still one of the greatest bassists of all time, and he’s a consummate performer.” - (Consequence)
“...a level of cool craftsmanship and stage presence that is both admirable and mesmerizing.” - (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
Following his recent critically acclaimed run in South America and South Africa, the STING 3.0 tour continues with a special series of shows scheduled in North America and Europe, with the full North American itinerary here.
Known for his groundbreaking work as a solo artist and as the frontman and songwriter in the seminal group The Police, Sting, managed by Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, has consistently pushed the boundaries of musical innovation throughout his illustrious career. The "STING 3.0" Tour represents a new dynamic era showcasing selections from his vast catalog through the urgent lens of a tight three-piece combo and inspired his new song, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)” - mixed by 4-time Grammy Award-winning mix engineer Robert Orton- released on Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records. Additionally, a new live album, STING 3.0 LIVE, is now available digitally, on CD and on 180g vinyl. Also recorded on the acclaimed “STING 3.0” World Tour, STING 3.0 LIVE is a collection of his greatest hits, including “Be Still My Beating Heart,” which has never-before been released as a live version. The 10-song digital album also features a live recording of “Fragile,” Sting’s 1987 single, which was recently covered by a children’s choir in an episode of the Netflix miniseries Adolescence.
