New York, NY (Top40 Charts / Live Nation Entertainment) Following their critically-acclaimed European tour, STING and SHAGGY will kick off The 44/876 Tour in North

Music Company and Live Nation. For a sneak peek of The 44/876 Tour, check out: https://bit.ly/2wKCvC6.
Hailed "one of the most anticipated concerts of the year" and "a two-hour musical melting pot," the dynamic and vibrant joint live show finds the two GRAMMY-award winning artists combining their bands to perform songs from their island-flavored album, (A&M/Cherrytree/Interscope Records) which has spent twelve weeks atop Billboard's Reggae album chart, and collaborating on each other's most celebrated hits such as "Every Breath You Take," "Englishman In New York," "Message In A Bottle," "It Wasn't Me," "Mr. Boombastic" and "Angel."
While many of the concerts have already sold out, tickets for select cities are still available at www.ticketmaster.com and usual outlets. Every online ticket purchase includes one physical or digital copy of
Sting & Shaggy's album, 44/876.
