ALAN PARSONS LIVE PROJECT TOUR 2021
“THE TURN OF A FRIENDLY CARD” 40th ANNIVERSARY
TUESDAY, AUGUST 31ST
PHOENIX, AZ – Danny Zelisko Presents brings legendary music icon Alan Parsons and his Alan Parsons Live Project to the historic Celebrity Theatre at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 31st. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday, May 14th at www.celebritythetre.com.
Alan Parsons began his storied career as an assistant engineer at the famed Abbey Road Studios working on projects such as The Beatles’ Abbey Road and Let It Be. He quickly transitioned into one of the most sought-after names in the recording industry. Other career defining records: Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon, the successful Year Of The Cat album with Al Stewart, and two albums with American band Ambrosia to name a few. Known as the master of prog rock, Parsons has received gold and platinum awards, 13 Grammy Award nominations and one Grammy.
After earning accolades for his work behind the glass, Parsons, a true Renaissance man and talented musician, formed The Alan Parsons Project, a multi-platinum selling progressive rock band featuring Parsons, his collaborator Eric Woolfson and a rotating cast of studio musicians. The Alan Parsons Project released 10 concept albums between 1976-1987 and have sold over 50 million albums world-wide. Certified Billboard Top 40 hit singles include “Eye in the Sky,” “Time” and “Don’t Answer Me.” Since Woolfson’s passing, Parsons now performs with a band of musicians and plays largely Alan Parsons Project material.
With his book, “Art & Science of Sound Recording,” Parsons has been leading the way regarding technology, blending tech with art for his craft as a recording engineer and producer-performer. Compiling his years of expertise into his book (and DVD set), there’s nothing else like it available in the marketplace.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Reserved tickets ($35, $75 and $125) go on sale at 10 a.m. this Friday, May 14th online at www.celebritytheatre.com or by calling 602-267-1600. All tickets are subject to sales tax, facility and ticketing surcharges. All ages welcome.
