Reba, Roger Daltry, Jim Gaffigan Coming to Fraze

February 2, 2018 By Dayton Most Metro

The one-and-only REBA McEntire is returning to Fraze Pavilion on Saturday, August 4, 2018. Her previous performance in 2015 on the Fraze Pavilion stage was a quick sell-out. Don’t miss getting tickets to see this multi-talented singer with 35 No. 1 singles and over 56 million albums sold worldwide. Reba’s 13th consecutive #1 album Sing It Now: Songs Of Faith & Hope topped both the Billboard Country and Christian/Gospel charts, bolstering her successful record of 35 No. 1 singles and over 56 million albums sold worldwide. The double-disc collection, released jointly on Nash Icon Records / Capitol Christian Music Group, earned Reba her first GMA Dove Award for Bluegrass/Country/Roots Album of the Year and won the 2018 GRAMMY Award for Best Roots Gospel Album.

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Grand Ole Opry member has won 15 American Music Awards, 14 ACM Awards, 9 People’s Choice Awards, 6 CMA Awards and 2 Grammy Awards, in addition to other philanthropic and leadership honors. During her 2011 All The Women I Am Tour, Pollstar and Billboard’s Boxscore named Reba the No. 1 female Country touring artist with a combined total of over 9 million tickets sold in her career.

Recently, Kentucky Fried Chicken announced that REBA is the first ever globally-known music superstar to play the role of Colonel Harland Sanders.

The Oklahoma native is an acclaimed actress with 11 movie credits to her name, a lead role on Broadway in Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun and starred in the six-season television sitcom Reba.

Tickets for Reba range from $59 to $139 in advance and GO ON SALE Saturday, February 10th at 10am

Fraze Pavilion is pleased to be one of only 10 venues this summer to welcome Roger Daltrey performing The Who’s “TOMMY” with members of The Who Band and the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra on July 2nd.

The performance at Fraze Pavilion will feature full orchestral backing by members of the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra. Daltrey and his band will be showcasing the beloved classics from the 1969 rock opera, including “Pinball Wizard,” “See Me, Feel Me” and more.

Considered one of the seminal albums of the rock canon, last year The Who played all of TOMMY for the first time in 28 years at the Royal Albert Hall in London as part of a benefit concert for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Roger performed it in its entirety with his band during his 2011 solo tour. The opportunity to bring an orchestral dynamic to the raw emotion and cathartic impact of the songs that cemented Daltrey’s legacy as a vocal powerhouse adds a compelling dimension to the music’s timelessness.

Daltrey comments, “I’m really looking forward to singing TOMMY, not only with my great backing group, but also some of the finest orchestras in the country. Pete Townshend’s rock music is particularly suited to being embellished by the sounds that an orchestra can add to the band. With the arrangements written by David Campbell, it should make a memorable night of entertainment for all those who love the arts.”

Tickets range from $60 to $120 in advance and GO ON SALE tomorrow, February 3rd at 10am

He’s back and funnier than ever! Jim Gaffigan returns to Fraze Pavilion from his sell-out performance in 2016. Don’t miss out on “The Fixer Upper Tour” on July 27th.  Gaffigan is a three-time Grammy nominated comedian, actor, writer, producer, two-time New York Times best-selling author, Pollstar nominated, top touring performer, and multi-platinum-selling father of five. He is known around the world for his unique brand of humor which largely revolves around fatherhood and his observations on life.

Gaffigan, who is one of the world’s highest grossing stand-up comedians according to Forbes, is currently on his Noble Apeinternational arena and theater comedy tour, with dates in China, Japan, England, Canada, Paris, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, etc. This past January, he premiered his fifth one hour stand up special, Cinco, on Netflix, who also purchased the exclusive rights to Gaffigan’s four other stand-up specials in an unprecedented deal. The album version of Cinco, Gaffigan’s fifth album, became available on June 13th and during that week, Gaffigan had 6 albums in the top 10 comedy albums list on iTunes. Cinco garnered impressive reviews, with A.V. Club calling Jim, “One of our most intelligent observational humorists.”  Tickets range from $45 to $65 in advance and GO ON SALE tomorrow, February 3rd at 10am

Grab your cowboy hat and boots when country music legend Neal McCoy takes the Fraze Pavilion stage on June 24th.  Country singer Neal McCoy has released fifteen studio albums, and has released 34 singles to country radio. In 1993, Neal McCoy broke through with the back-to-back number 1 singles “No Doubt About It” and “Wink” from his platinum-certified album No Doubt About It.

His success continued with two more platinum albums and a gold album, as well as six more Top Ten hits into the late 1990s. A seventh Top Ten hit, the #10 “Billy’s Got His Beer Goggles On,” came in 2005 from McCoy’s self-released That’s Life.

Music of Your Life, a blend of big band jazz and country with Les Brown, Jr. was recorded for a public television special that appeared in 2011, and a new studio album, XII, arrived in 2012. In 2013 he released Pride: A Tribute to Charley Pride, Neal’s long time friend and mentor. 2015 brought the Big Band Standards CD You Don’t Know Me. Neal has been on 15 USO Tours around the world and continues to say it’s one of the achievements he’s most proud of.
