About the performers:
Mariah Carey -- Performing in Los Angeles, CA (Thursday, July 31)
International Superstar Mariah Carey's latest release, E=MC2 debuted at
#1 on the Billboard charts at 463,000, resulting in the biggest first week
debut of Mariah's illustrious career. Mariah reached another historic
career achievement when her lead single "Touch My Body" became her 18th #1
hit on the Billboard Hot 100 -- surpassing one of the most enduring chart
records in Billboard history, Elvis Presley's 17 #1's. Now, Mariah is
positioned as the only active recording artist in the 50 years of the Hot
100 (which began in 1958) with the potential to surpass the Beatles'
all-time high of 20 number one hits. Mariah has sold over 160 million units
worldwide, making her the top-selling female recording artist in history.
Gavin Rossdale -- Performing in Seattle, WA (Thursday, August 7)
Gavin Rossdale is a man of many talents, with unmistakable, distinctive
vocals and an incredible lyrical genius. Rossdale first stepped into the
international spotlight with his band Bush. The band's debut album, Sixteen
Stone, was released in 1994, featuring the massive singles "Everything
Zen," "Glycerine," and "Comedown" and went on to sell over 6 million copies
in the U.S. alone. The triple-platinum follow-up, Razorblade Suitcase,
debuted at #1, followed by two more albums -- 1999's The Science of Things
and 2001's Golden State -- after which Bush went on an indefinite hiatus
from touring and recording. Rossdale returned to the music scene in 2005
with a new band, Institute, and their debut album, Distort Yourself. The
band toured extensively, including two stints opening for U2. In June 2008,
Gavin Rossdale released his first-ever solo album, entitled WANDERLUST,
which was produced by Bob Rock. The record marks a new chapter in Gavin's
musical career and features some of his most personal and powerful songs to
date. For more information, please visit http://www.gavinrossdale.com.
LeAnn Rimes -- Performing in Dallas, TX (Wednesday, August 13)
LeAnn Rimes has sold more than 37 million albums, won two GRAMMY
Awards, three Academy of Country Music Awards and 12 Billboard Music
Awards. Rimes is the youngest GRAMMY Award-winner ever and was the first
country recording artist to win the GRAMMY's "Best New Artist" category.
Her current album, Family, is her most personal yet and was entirely
co-written by Rimes. With the lead single from Family, the GRAMMY nominated
"Nothin' Better to Do," Rimes became the first artist to have a song on
Billboard's Country, Adult Contemporary and Dance charts simultaneously.
Nominated this year for two Academy of Country Music Awards, LeAnn recently
won the CMT Award for "Collaborative Video of the Year" with Bon Jovi and
the Gospel Music Association's Dove Award for her song from the Evan
Almighty movie soundtrack. Rimes has scored numerous hit singles in her
career, including "Can't Fight The Moonlight," which went #1 in 11
countries and "How Do I Live," which holds the record for the longest
charting song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart at 69 weeks. An accomplished
author, LeAnn has penned two children's books, acted in film and television
and long-supported a variety of charity organizations including The
Children's Miracle Network and supporting America's recently wounded and
disabled war veterans. LeAnn is currently preparing to launch her poignant
new single, "What I Cannot Change," and is touring throughout the summer
with Kenny Chesney. For more information, please visit
http://www.leannrimesworld.com.
Nelly -- Performing in Atlanta, GA (Tuesday, August 19)
Cornell "Nelly" Haynes burst onto the music scene in 2000 when the
unknown rapper from a sleepy Midwestern metropolis stunned the recording
industry, selling over a quarter of a million copies of his debut album,
Country Grammar, during its first week of release. Nelly quickly proved his
star potential with follow-up singles "E.I." and "Ride Wit Me" on an album
that would go on to sell 9 million copies. Two years later, his sophomore
album Nellyville established his widespread appeal, selling 6 million
albums and earning him two Grammies for the singles "Hot in Herre" and
"Dilemma." One of the industry's top recording artists, Nelly made music
history in 2004 by becoming the first solo and rap artist to deliver two
best selling platinum albums (Suit and Sweat) simultaneously, which
ultimately elevated him to four number one hits -- the most by a male
artist in the Top 40 charts. A three-time GRAMMY winner who has also
received critical-acclaim as an actor with his role in "The Longest Yard,"
Nelly's fifth studio album titled "Brass Knuckles" drops on September 16
including the hot single, "Party People," featuring Fergie.
Smashing Pumpkins -- Performing in Orlando, FL (Friday, August 22)
The longest-lasting and most successful alternative bands of the early
90's, the Smashing Pumpkins' music is distinguished from most other grunge
rock in its amalgam of progressive rock, heavy metal, goth rock,
psychedelia and dream pop, creating a layered, powerful sound driven by
swirling, distorted guitars. Formed in Chicago in 1988, The Smashing
Pumpkins were met with instant success with the platinum release of their
first album, Gish, in 1991, which was followed by more platinum and
multi-platinum albums including the nine-time platinum Mellon Collie And
The Infinite Sadness and the four-time platinum Siamese Dream. The pivotal
group's many hits include "Disarm," "Today," "Cherub Rock," "1979,"
"Tonight, Tonight" and "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" -- songs that defined
the alternative music era and continue to resonate on modern rock radio,
influencing a whole new generation of fans. The release of Zeitgeist, the
sixth Smashing Pumpkins album and the first album since 2000, recaptures
the spirit of this great and influential rock band. Representing a powerful
rebirth and reaffirmation of the Smashing Pumpkins by two of its key
members, main singer-songwriter and guitarist Billy Corgan and drummer
Jimmy Chamberlin, Zeitgeist is a heartfelt, ambitious and deeply felt piece
of work that signifies the second coming of the band.
Nas -- Performing in New York, NY (Wednesday, August 27)
A multi-platinum hip-hop artist, Nas is the eldest son of Jazz musician
Olu Dara and Fannie Ann Jones. Regarded as one of hip-hop's greatest MC's,
Nas was raised in the notorious Queensbridge projects in New York City, the
largest public housing project in the United States. After dropping out of
school in the eighth grade, Nas educated himself about African culture and
civilization as well as the origin of hip-hop music. His 1994 debut album,
Illmatic, established Nas as one of hip-hop's most profound lyricists and
introduced the world to his signature rhyming poetic style. His sixth
studio album, God's Son was named best hip-hop album of the year by Time
Magazine, with the single "I Can" becoming his biggest hit to date. His
2006 album, Hip Hop Is Dead became Nas's third number one album (along with
It Was Written and I Am). Nas's newest Untitled album dropped on July 15,
premiering in the #1 spot on the charts!
Good Charlotte -- Performing in San Francisco, CA (Tuesday, September
16)
Recently returning from a highly successful international tour Good
Charlotte, made up of twin brothers Joel Madden (vocals) and Benji Madden
(guitars/vocals), Billy Martin (guitars), Paul Thomas (bass) and Dean
Butterworth (drums) continue to take the world by storm. Hailing from
Waldorf, Maryland, Good Charlotte topped charts worldwide with the group's
2002 break-out album, the hugely successful The Young and the Hopeless,
which included the hit singles "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" and "Girls
and Boys." The album went on to become multi-platinum, landing the band
incredible publicity, including the cover of Rolling Stone. In 2004, Good
Charlotte released another hit album called The Chronicles of Life and
Death. Good Charlotte's latest release, Good Morning Revival
(Epic/Daylight), is the best-selling group's fourth full-length album and
features the hit singles "The River" and "(I Don't Wanna Be In Love) Dance
Floor Anthem" -- which the Associated Press called "An instantly infectious
toe-tapper." In 2008, Good Charlotte, yet again, finds themselves at a
creative pinnacle, asserting their place as serious chart contenders.
