Commodores bringing classic hits to The Vista

Motown legends playing at Surprise venue Jan. 13

Posted

The Vista Center for the Arts, 15660 N. Parkview Place, is promising an unforgettable evening of soulful music and classic hits with the Commodores.

The legendary group is set to perform at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 13.

Tickets are $76.50 to $86.50, including fees.

For three decades, the Commodores have remained a force in the music industry.

The Commodores aren’t just any group. They have staying power. Just like their hit song “Brick House,” the Commodores have created a foundation that just won’t budge.

After churning out hit after hit in the Motown days, the Commodores still hadn’t achieved Grammy Award recognition.

This wasn’t to be until 1986, without Lionel Richie, when the Commodores released “Night Shift.”

In 1968, the group was formed while all the members were in college at Tuskeegee Institute.

After being discovered by Berry Gordy, the Commodores went on to sell over 60 million records for Motown. With hits like “Machine Gun” and “Sail On,” the Commodores became proven
artists.

They proved it then. They proved it in 1986 with “Night Shif””, and now they are ready to prove it again.

Unlike many other groups, the Commodores haven’t rested on their early hits. Quite the contrary, the Commodores have continued to put out quality work. With the creation of their new
label, the Commodores released “Commodores Hits Vol. I,” “Commodores Hits Vol. II,” “Commodores Christmas,” and “Commodores XX-No Tricks.”

The newest CD “Commodores Live” was recorded during the group’s 1997 U.S. tour and released in December 1998, along with the TV special of the same name.

The successful Commodores of the present have not only produced six new albums, and embarked upon a worldwide tour, but have created their own record label, Commodores Records and Entertainment.

Presently, the Commodores have not only produced six new albums but have also embarked on a worldwide tour, captivating audiences around the globe.

Tickets are available at TheVistaAZ.com, at the door, or by calling the Box Office at 623-523-8888.
