INTERNATIONAL MUSIC LEGEND ENGELBERT HUMPERDINCK
LAUNCHES NORTH AMERICA TOUR DATES
IN SUPPORT OF NEW ALBUM
NEW ALBUM ENGELBERT CALLING TO INCLUDE DUETS WITH ICONIC MUSIC ARTISTS ELTON JOHN, WILLIE NELSON, GENE SIMMONS, IL DIVO, AND MORE
(Corpus Christi, TX September 22, 2014) – Legendary music artist Engelbert Humperdinck is set to embark on an extensive North American tour in support of his highly anticipated album “Engelbert Calling”. “Engelbert Calling” will be released in the US and Canada on September 30th and will feature duets with some of the world’s most recognized names in music, including Elton John, Willie Nelson, Olivia Newton-John, Gene Simmons, and more. Fans will be able to purchase “Engelbert Calling” on iTunes and at all major music retailers across North America.
“He is one of the sweetest and nicest people I have ever worked with,” Elton John said about his experience collaborating with Engelbert. “We had a great time singing together and he is so quick, what I call a ‘one-take singer,’ 76 years old and still sounding as good as ever!”
More than 45 years after his massive hit “Release Me” reached #1 on the pop charts and created a worldwide frenzy, spending six full weeks at #1 and an incredible 56 weeks in the Top 50 in a single chart run, Engelbert’s newest album comes as a celebration of his remarkable career which has spanned nearly five decades. After selling more than 150 million albums world-wide, including 24 certified with platinum status and 63 with gold, Engelbert has solidified his name as an international pop legend and has established himself as one of the world’s most influential artists.
Soon Engelbert will be giving fans even more to be excited about, as he hits theaters and arenas across North America, playing classic hits as well as tracks from the new album. There are exclusive After The Lovin’ VIP Meet & Greet packages available for select dates on the tour.
