Show in Mohegan Sun Arena on Thursday, November 4th
UNCASVILLE, CT (June 14, 2021) – Award winning, Platinum selling artist Brett Eldredge is set to launch his Good Day Tour later this summer and into fall. Produced by Live Nation, the 21 city tour will kick off September 16th in Cleveland, OH and will be his first U.S. tour since his perennial holiday Glow tour wrapped in December of 2019.

Tickets are $49.50 and $39.50, and on sale Friday, June 18th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com and LiveNation.com.
“The Good Day Tour will by far be the most appreciative and grateful experience of my career because I miss playing music so much,” said Eldredge. “I miss the human connection, the fan to fan connection, the people out there singing their hearts out who travel from all over the place to come together as a group, and be there with each other to smile, laugh and sing. The Good Day Tour is going to bring a lot of joy to people and one of those especially being me, because I cannot wait.”
The Good Day Tour will feature songs from his critically-acclaimed recent album Sunday Drive, as well as fan favorites from his previous albums which include #1 smash songs like “Don’t Ya,” “Beat Of The Music,” “Wanna Be That Song,” “Love Someone” and more.
The tour will also include special opening act Morgan Evans who hit the top of the U.S. Charts with “Kiss Somebody.” The Australian born singer-songwriter is known for other hits including “Diamonds” and fan favorite “Day Drunk.” “I’m bringing Morgan Evans on tour and I’ve been a big fan of his for a long time and he’s a crazy good talent and amazing guy. I just think he brings that mentality that I love, that positive energy and good heart and this tour is going to have a lot of heart,” said Eldredge.

ABOUT BRETT ELDREDGE
With his critically acclaimed fourth studio record, country superstar Brett Eldredge takes fans on an unforgettable outing with his new album Sunday Drive. Joined by GRAMMY-winning producers Daniel Tashian and Ian Fitchuk, he journeyed to Chicago’s intimate Shirk Studios, where the album came to life. As a mental health advocate, Eldredge pulls from a personal place with the single “Good Day,” which brings the message of keeping a healthy mindset. “Good Day” follows the wistful, piano-driven lead single “Gabrielle,” which made its TV debut on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and has been called “a breath of fresh air” by Rolling Stone. Having added a seventh Country radio No. 1 to his name with “Love Someone,” the critically acclaimed entertainer filled arenas on his first ever sold-out headlining The Long Way tour, which included performances of his Gold and Platinum-certified singles spanning four albums. His highly celebrated Christmas album Glow debuted at No. 2 on the country charts and featured the Billboard Adult Contemporary and Holiday Music Chart-topping duet “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” with Meghan Trainor. In 2016, the album inspired a single live holiday show in Nashville, which has now grown into the annual Glow LIVE holiday tour, hitting major cities across the country. He continues to bring holiday cheer with his new duet “Under The Mistletoe” with Kelly Clarkson and “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” (Latin Version) featuring Sofia Reyes, both available everywhere now.

UNCASVILLE, CT (June 9, 2021) – The legendary music group, Earth, Wind & Fire will perform at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, December 10th at 8:00pm.
Tickets are $67.00, $57.00 and $47.00 and on sale Friday, June 11th at 10:00am via Ticketmaster.com.
Earth, Wind & Fire are a musical institution. 2020 marked a year-long celebration of their 50th anniversary in entertainment – one that has taken them all around the globe playing sold out concerts. In 2019, their contributions to arts and culture were acknowledged in Washington DC with the prestigious “Kennedy Center Honors”. The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery also awarded Earth, Wind & Fire with its “Portrait of a Nation” prize.
The band has scored eight number one hits, has sold over 100 million albums worldwide and released 23 albums. Eight of those albums went double platinum and hit the Top 10, making them one of the best-selling artists of all time. They’ve won an impressive nine Grammy Awards including one for “Lifetime Achievement” (2012). In 2000, Earth, Wind & Fire was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, cementing their lasting impact on popular music.
For their record-breaking success, they’ve also been awarded with “Lifetime Achievement” honors from ASCAP, NAACP, BET, and have star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Their reach extends to heads-of- state. They have been invited to perform for Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, who said in an interview with Rolling Stone that Earth, Wind & Fire was a “Rhythm and Blues and Pop staple.”
Their achievements are equally matched by their generosity. Over the years, the band has supported various charity organizations including the Make a Wish Foundation, Race to Erase MS, the American Cancer Society, and the Human Society. In 2007, leader Philip Bailey founded Music Is Unity, which helps youth in foster care successfully transition into adulthood and provides music instruments to youth with musical aspirations but lacking the resources. Co- founder, Verdine White has led important initiatives with the Girls & Boys Club of America and opened The Verdine White Foundation in Los Angeles as a mecca to serve youth with music scholarships and other programs.
The music of Earth, Wind & Fire is more alive than ever as they continue to inspire new audiences and thrill those who have been with them from the beginning. Like the elements in their name, Earth, Wind & Fire’s music has withstood ever-changing trends in the world and shows no sign of vanishing as they continue to create joy and uplifting music that will forever reach a sacred universal atmosphere.
