Exceptional, fascinating, a showcase of impeccable musicianship, influential, fun, and brilliant - just a few words to describe the unique force that is about to hit the Pacific Amphitheatre.
Squeeze, hailed as the “heirs to Lennon and McCartney’s throne”, shot to the top of the charts in the late 1970s. Every song is a blast – from “Tempted” and “Up the Junction” to “Cool for Cats” and “Take Me, I’m Yours”.
The inimitable, witty, and erudite Englishmen have been captivating sold-out audiences for decades, blasting the hits and touching on a few rarely performed gems. With their smart wordplay, memorable melodies, distinctive personalities, mischievousness, and exceptionally intelligent approach to performance, Squeeze has become a much-loved institution in the new wave, post-punk, pub rock, and power pop movements. Pop gold, Squeeze, has survived through ruptures and reconciliations and won’t slow down – they’ll have the audience on their feet from the get-go.
The iconic Boy George, with his unique mixture of British new wave, American pop and soul, reggae, salsa, and calypso, together with his band, Culture Club, smashed into the music scene in 1982 with their international breakthrough hit, “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me”, followed by others, such as “The Crying Game”, “Karma Chameleon” and “Church of the Poison Mind”. It was shock and awe in action: the sonic gloss, colors, and hypnotic flamboyance of frontman Boy George ensured that he was – and still is - on everyone’s lips: a sonic and visual spectacle in its purest form. Even after 37 years of performing, Boy George is still red, gold, and green, exuding that sweet, delightful voice, smooth beats, and unparalleled connection with audiences.
The numbers don’t lie: Boy George, both as frontman of Culture Club and solo artist, racked in best-selling albums, peaking hits, Grammy nominations, Tony Award nominations, the Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music, and an Attitude Award as a Music Icon.
The amazing 8,000-seat landmark Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa, California - to which world-class acts are nothing new - will be transformed into a glitzy and ritzy time machine. Add the best dining and the pop gold of Squeeze and Boy George to the mix, and you are guaranteed a concert experience unlike any other.
