Legendary Canadian singer-songwriter Bryan Adams will light up homegrown arenas on a five-date greatest hits India tour in October 2018 for his nineteenth concert tour. The gigs are lined up in support of the music veteran’s current 21 track compilation, Ultimate, which released in November last year. The tour kicks off on with Ahmedabad and wraps up in the capital, New Delhi. Also included on the jaunt are festival stops in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bengaluru. While Bryan Adams has performed in India previously, his 5th outing on local shores promises to be one of the biggest productions of the year. The legendary musician has performed in India four times before, the first being in 1995, followed by 2001 and 2003, and the last being ‘The Bare Bones Tour’ in 2011.
Speaking about the upcoming tour, Adams says:
Namaste India. At the onset I’d like to wish each one of you a very happy Independence Day. India is one of my favorite places in the whole world. The love and generosity that I have experienced here is immense and I am eternally grateful to ENIL for the opportunity to perform again in this beautiful country.
Mahesh Shetty, COO of ENIL, who are producing the shows, says:
Bryan Adams is one of the most exciting live musicians in the world and his energetic performance, effortless stage presence and incredible vocals are guaranteed to thrill and entertain. For a lot of Indians, Bryan Adams was the introduction to the sheer simplicity and awesomeness of rock’n’roll. His first concert in India was in 1995 in Mumbai which set a precedent for other global artists who wished to perform in India. He enjoys a devout following in India with most of his albums becoming super hits in the sub-continent. We are extremely excited to bring forth this tour to India and anticipate a total sell out. We firmly believe that his music and lyrics cut across generations and we are looking forward to seeing a lot of his die-hard as well as first time fans feel the ‘Summer of 69’ for the October tour.
