Both planned appearances will be filled with special guests and an all star ensemble of performers.

Celebrating David Bowie creator/producer Angelo “Scrote” Bundini is at the helm again to bring these massive shows together. Since 2017, he has gone on to create/produce other successful international tours such as BEAT featuring Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, Steve Vai, and Tool’s Danny Carey performing 80s King Crimson repertoire and WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW performing the music of Burt Bacharach with longtime former Bacharach music director/arranger Rob Shirakbari and a myriad of star performers.

Scrote shares, “I’m thrilled to honor David again with this new explosive collection of truly unique and brilliant artists and musicians who span various genres and periods. With these shows we are going BIG with the biggest songs and arrangements of David’s songs that we have ever performed. The song list stretches across all five decades of David’s incredible catalogue.”

Jesse Hughes says, “I was lucky enough to perform on this tour and I couldn’t be more proud to have been a part of it”.

“Honored to have sang in celebration of the one and only David Bowie! Thank you to the beautiful souls who put these shows together to help honor a legend,” chimes Lady Blackbird.

Angelo Moore offers, “One of the things that stuck out while abroad was our group visit to the David Bowie Is… exhibit in Tokyo and how they cover so much of his life, music, fashion, and creative processes. I’m excited we will be doing more of his unique aesthetic in our upcoming shows.”
