I'm Going to See Kylie in Chicago!

Kylie Minogue - North American Tour 2009 It's (almost) official! I'm going to see Kylie Minogue on October 7th in Chicago! So excited! All that's left to do now is pay back my friend who bought the (almost $100) tickets, and get a flight to Chicago. Still...VERY exciting! Tickets go on sale to the general public on May 16th!

New Music: Jordin Sparks' Battlefield

Jordin SparksPhoto available at JordinSparks.com

The new Jordin Sparks single has leaked in full and it's AMAZING (Popjustice thinks so too!). I love it! The track was written by Ryan Tedder (of OneRepublic) who has written & produced songs for the likes of Leona Lewis ("Bleeding Love"), Hilary Duff, Jennifer Hudson, Shayne Ward, Natasha Bedingfield and countless others.

I agree with The Prophet, who compares it to Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway." It totally straddles the line between R&B and Top 40 pop and I can see this doing well on the radio here in the States. The single is released digitally in the States tomorrow (May 12th), goes to radio on May 25th and comes out in the UK on June 22nd.

Jordin Sparks - BattlefieldSparks is also expected to perform the new single on Wednesday's American Idol results show, with Ryan Tedder accompanying her on the guitar. Sparks doesn't always sound brilliant live so I'm hoping for the best with her live performance. Either way, I can't wait for this song! JAM!

EDIT: I forgot! I just received my German CD Maxi of Jordin's "One Step At A Time" with 4 remixes (Jason Nevins, Mike Rizzo, Tonal & Grayson). Yay! Not the best Jordin Sparks single, but I love me some remixes! Get yours at Perfect Beat while supplies last!

Katie Melua Promotes Her Tour & Album in Chicago

Katie MeluaI'm getting excited for the upcoming Katie Melua gig on May 27th in Cambridge. Tickets are ordered and I've got a guest to join me. Katie is in the midst of her 18 city North American tour, hitting up my home town Chicago tomorrow night.

Katie Melua - Mary PickfordMelua's team on Facebook posted video links today of a promotional appearance on Chicago's WGN Channel 9 morning news program. In addition to a short interview, Melua performed "Perfect Circle," of her latest album Pictures, recently released here in the U.S. Also posted was also web-exclusive performance of "Mary Pickford."

I love a good intimate gig and this performance just makes me more excited. I'm just hoping the audience remains mellow and that no fist fights break out.
