When Frankie Valli Concert Tour?
Frankie Valli Concert Tour: The Legendary Singer Is on the Road Again
Frankie Valli, the lead vocalist of the Four Seasons whose high-pitched voice made him a famous singer, has come out with another concert tour across North America. Currently a septuagenarian, Valli continues to sing the kind of doo-wop that shot him to fame in the early ’60s. His latest tour will be another memorable one for the fans who have been following him over time as well as those who are new to his work.
Starting With a Bang and Taking Us on a Trip Down Memory Lane
Valli has been on tour since February 2022 and is till October for more than 50 performances in arenas and amphitheaters across the United States and Canada. He is covering most of the big cities that include New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto and so on. The tour was finally launched with a series of concerts in Florida at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, Hollywood.
For these first performances, Valli’s fans got a trip down memory lane with Four Seasons’ hits “Sherry,” “Walk Like a Man” and “Big Girls Don’t Cry” among others and “December 1963 (Oh What a Night)” During all these years of singing those hits, Valli could not lose his falsetto or his gravelly voice.
The Seminole Hard Rock shows are evidence that Valli has not lost that 60s charisma that made him popular among ladies. But they also showed that he had a wide vocal range and was equally at home with solo tracks like the number one ‘My Eyes Adored You’ from the seventies. With great appreciation of music from different seasons of his career, Valli mixed several hit making songs to offer Florida fans a classic moment to open his latest tour.
Adding a Modern Twist
While Valli has enjoyed a long career and is performing many of his greatest hits on this tour, he has chosen to add four songs from Jersey Boys, the current Broadway musical hit that celebrates Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. The musical includes several hits by Valli as well as several songs created for the musical but in the style of the group.
During the Jersey Boys touring cast, it was amazing to find actors who could successfully mimic Frankie Valli’s falsetto voice. But on this tour, the man himself sings “Oh What a Night” complementing the recording of the Jersey Boys cast with the help of amplification. Valli’s genuine singing enhances the musical’s imitation of his sensational group and makes for a distinctly touching nostalgic journey to The Four Seasons era.
Other songs from the musical such as “Beggin’” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” are also featured in Valli’s plan for the concert. Thus, the show performs several Jersey Boys numbers, thus being interesting to the young people familiar with the musical and to the fans who grew up listening to Valli on the radio. It enables several generations of people to sit and listen to a concert, which has been organized due to timeless music.
The Next Chapter
Even though his chart-toppers ensure that people flock to see him again and again, Valli does not remain stagnant. He still seeks to grow as an artist, as evidenced by his latest solo album properly titled A New Chapter, produced by contemporary producer and songwriter Jax Jones.
In line with the album’s title, this is a new phase of Valli’s career as he provides his voice on new modern dance-pop production. Songs like “Sweeter Than Wine” and the album’s lead single “I Ain’t Done Yet” are modern takes on Valli’s sound that both old and new fans can enjoy.
Some of the original modern tracks are also performed by Valli during his tour, he says loud many times that he wants to move on. And while his new songs may sound polished and up to date, the raw soulful voice of Frankie Valli is still present. Even when those falsetto notes cut through, it is still the unique voice that generations have adored.
In his concerts, new songs that form the album show that Valli is still interested in producing music even after all the years he had dominated the charts. But the new songs also have a message: Frankie Valli is not a relic of rock ‘n’ roll past, but a singer of present and future as well.
The Legend Interacts With Followers
Undoubtedly, the singing is the soul of any live concert of Frankie Valli, but these performances are also chance to meet with the man in person. During the performances, Valli does not mind stopping for several minutes to engage in conversation with the audience members while reminiscing about moments from his autobiography.
Loyal fans are even brought to tears as Valli narrates some of the touching stories on how The Four Seasons rose to fame. Due to this he makes his audience feel like old friends they practically are, after years of observing him on stage. For the younger generation attending concert for the first time, it is a memorable experience listening to Valli through storytelling.
These memorable interactions make the audience even more engaged because they are constantly reminded that there is a real person who is performing all of this magic behind the voice. When Valli laughingly says he can no longer reach the high notes of his first records, the audience melts with love for the singer who gave his art to their lives. Viewers leave the show with the impression that they have seen the man beyond the image created by famous tunes.
Passing the Torch
As Valli reveals more and more about his life during the shows, he showers unbounded appreciation for the Four Seasons tribute band that accompanies him on tour, referring to them as ‘the new Four Seasons. ’ This is actually a veritable ensemble that truly mimics the vocal harmonies and the music that accompanied Valli’s voice during his prime years.
As the original member of Four Seasons, Bob Gaudio is also the musical director of the concerts; thus, the band perfectly imitates the nuances of the early number hits. Seeing this gifted company perform flawless hooks and choruses makes concerts a journey back in time to the music realm.
Valli occasionally shows appreciation to his touring band before they perform some of their numbers. There are opportunities for the band members to demonstrate their outstanding talents as there are sections where saxophone, guitar, and piano accompany solos during costume changes. Having new comers perform the iconic riffs and vocals to perfection makes the audience realize that indeed Valli’s legacy will continue to be emulated by up and coming artists.
Valli and his band then reunite to perform a high energy version of ‘Who Loves You’ as the grand finale of each show and it feels like an effective passing of the torch. When Valli is teaching the young backing vocalists some of the tricks that he uses in his performance such as the high pitch falsetto, the audience sees the genuine camaraderie between the old and young talents.
People who attended the concerts go home confident that the music of the original four seasons will be in safe hands for many years to come. But, of course, no one can replace Frankie Valli, and his marvelous singing voice continues attracting crowds to the arenas to listen to this legend before he retires.
Buy the tickets before it is too late
Tickets are being sold off for Frankie Valli’s concert tour at an alarming rate, and it may become quite difficult to secure a seat as the summer unfolds. For instance, Nashville, Boston, Seattle, and many others have certain dates labeled as sold out. Since Valli himself has said that he does not know how much more touring he will do, this string of concerts offers fans a chance to see one of the true giants of pop music perhaps for the last time.
Even Valli himself concedes he can no longer hit the same notes or dance around the stage like when he was young, performing on the Ed Sullivan Show, yet his voice is still incredibly powerful. This also helps Valli to balance himself, while still providing a full band and backup singers which makes the show more thrilling every night. Outperforming everyone with his unique music style at the age of 78, remains the epitome of cool that Valli still demonstrated.
Frankie Valli entered the world of music in the fifties and to this day his music is recorded and there is no telling when that will stop. But nothing can replace the atmosphere of the concert where Valli himself is performing on the stage. Do not let the chance go by to be able to belt it out in a car with a pop legend. Go buy tickets to see these and more to recreate and create memories while Frankie Valli can still sing those songs. This doo-wop legend clearly isn’t done yet—will you be there to witness history in the making on his latest tour?
