This week offers some nostalgia from Motown legends The Temptations and The Four Tops, '80s pop icon Lionel Richie and '60s rock band The Zombies. Pop superstars Mariah Carey and Kelly Clarkson play some big concerts this week, Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy plays some new songs at The Majestic Theatre on Sunday night plus more.
Mariah Carey
Wednesday night's appearance at Toyota Music Factory will be the initial outing on Mariah Carey's Caution World Tour. The pop diva has grown into one of the highest-selling musical artists of all time in the years since her early-'90s debut. And though she continues to record new music and can still hit the high notes with anyone in the business, Carey, in recent years, tends to be seen as more of a celebrity personality than a recording artist.
She's been in a number of high-profile advertising campaigns, held feature roles in an abundance of films and infamously hosted season 12 of American Idol, an experience she cited as one of the worst of her life. As evidenced by her recent Las Vegas residency, the stage seems to be where she's most comfortable, so expect a soulful evening of tunes both new and old, as she kicks off her tour in style here in our backyard.
