NEW YORK, NY (Top40 Charts/ Warner Bros/ Reprise Records Publicity) - With a shining new Grammy Award for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album of 2007 packed in his suitcase, Canadian singing sensation
Michael Buble is scheduled to begin a series of sold out shows across the US beginning with the Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida on February 20th. As a result of immediate sell outs within minutes as well as intense ticket demand in many markets, the US promoter of Michael Buble's tour, Don Fox of Beaver Productions, added more seating in several venues including Jacksonville, Florida on Feb. 24th, Austin,
Texas on Feb. 27th and Houston,
Texas on March 1st and other arenas on the tour. The current leg of the tour is scheduled to end with two shows at The Borgata in Atlantic City on March 21st and 22nd.
Buble's current smash CD "CALL ME IRRESPONSIBLE" has sold close to two million copies. The Buble-penned hit singles "Home" and "Everything" were both No. 1 singles on the Billboard Charts.
"Winning a Grammy was a dream come true. It was a first for me and you always remember your first time," commented Buble who has been previously nominated for four Grammies in the course of a career that has sold well over 15 million albums worldwide. "It makes it doubly exciting to get back on the road to perform for my fans," he concluded.
"In the tradition of the great standards singers before him, Buble has a sterling voice that is only outshined by his undeniable wit, confident banter and flirtatious charm," raved The Denver Post of his current tour. "A major pop star" hailed the NY Times of a recent Buble performance at NY's Radio City Music Hall.
